Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across portions of northern Texas to the Rio Grande on Sunday. Large hail is the primary threat. ...Synopsis... A mid-level trough will move from the Southwest to the central Plains on Sunday. Lee troughing is forecast along the High Plains during the day Sunday with a weak cyclone likely to develop near the Oklahoma Panhandle by 12Z Monday. A warm front will only slowly advance north across Texas during the day, but will advance north more aggressively after 00Z. ...West Texas into north-central Texas... As the mid-level trough advances east on Sunday, a low-level jet will strengthen across Texas. This will lead to increasing isentropic ascent and thunderstorm coverage during the day. Moderate instability, paired with moderate shear and steepening mid-level lapse rates may result in an environment which supports isolated large hail from a few elevated supercells. However, stronger storm coverage may be somewhat limited during the day. Greater coverage is anticipated Sunday night as stronger height falls overspread the southern Plains. Isolated large hail will be the primary threat, but a few damaging wind gusts may be possible if storms grow upscale and move into the surface-based warm sector late in the period as it starts to move northward more quickly. ..Bentley.. 11/22/2025 $$
