Areas affected...Portions of the Permian Basin and Stockton Plateua

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

Valid 292224Z - 292330Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

SUMMARY...A couple of transient supercells may develop within the
next 1-2 hours across portions of the Stockton Plateau and Permian
basin. Large hail up to 1.5 to 2.5" in diameter, and perhaps
localized severe wind gusts may accompany these thunderstorms.

DISCUSSION...Latest radar imagery from KMAF shows continued attempts
of deep moist convection over the Davis Mountains via orographic
ascent and easterly upslope flow. Surface observations across this
region, combined with modified RAP forecast soundings, suggest
localized CINH has eroded here, with very steep mid level lapse
rates in place. Large CAPE within the hail growth zone, combined
with effective deep layer shear magnitudes of 30-35 kt, will promote
some updraft organization. However, more broader scale forcing
mechanisms will limit the overall coverage of the severe threat.
