Mesoscale Discussion 1226
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0659 PM CDT Fri Jun 23 2023
Areas affected...eastern Wy and the western NE Panhandle.
Concerning...Tornado Watch 362...
Valid 232359Z - 240130Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 362 continues.
SUMMARY...The risk for all hazards continues with severe storms
across WW362.
DISCUSSION...Across WW362, a few supercells have organized over the
last couple of hours with reports of large hail and tornadoes. The
severe risk will likely continue as these storms continue to track
eastward within the broad upslope flow regime across eastern WY and
the western NE Panhandle. Recent HRRR/RAP soundings show expanding
low-level hodographs with time as the low-level jet is forecast to
increase. A couple of tornadoes will remain possible with the more
discrete supercells this evening as low-level shear increases and
near favorable terrain influences.
Upscale growth has been noted across northeastern WY with storms
transitioning to a more linear mode with time. As storm outflows
continue to merge, additional uspcale growth is expected to this
evening as storm approach western SD. Damaging wind potential should
increase accordingly with moderate buoyancy and deep-layer shear
continuing to support storm organization.
