MD 0931 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL…WATCH UNLIKELY FOR EASTERN TEXAS…FAR SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA…AND FAR WESTERN LOUISIANA
Mesoscale Discussion 0931
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0111 PM CDT Sat Jun 03 2023
Areas affected...eastern Texas...far southern Oklahoma...and far
western Louisiana
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 031811Z - 032015Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent
SUMMARY...Marginal risk for hail and gusty winds through the
afternoon.
DISCUSSION...Thunderstorm development has been noted across eastern
Texas into southern Oklahoma and Arkansas. Daytime heating and dew
points in the mid 60s to low 70s have allowed air mass
destabilization, with 1500-2000 J/kg of MLCAPE across eastern Texas
into western Louisiana and southern Arkansas analyzed through RAP
surface objective analysis. Deep layer flow is weak, resulting in
slow moving storms and very little shear in the background
environment. Given this regime, storms will generally pose a brief
severe risk and remain pulse in nature. Occasional gusty winds and
hail will be possible. Given the limited threat, a watch is not
being considered at this time.
