Valid 072223Z - 080000Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 197 continues. SUMMARY...The risk for large to very large hail (maximum hail diameter 1.5 to 2.5 inches) will continue through the early evening. DISCUSSION...Visible satellite imagery shows a north-south oriented cluster of storms near and east of the dryline from 35 mi east-northeast of San Angelo, TX to 45 mi south-southwest of Altus, OK. Surface analysis indicates a very moist/warm airmass across the area with temperatures in the 90s and dewpoints in the upper 60s to lower 70s observed on several West Texas Mesonet sites east of the ongoing storms. Although low to mid-level flow is modest, 50-kt 300-mb flow will enable storm organization and supercells will be the preferred storm mode of the stronger updrafts through the early evening. Large hail will be the primary severe hazard through the early evening (~7pm) before the risk for severe gusts perhaps increases with collapsing cores into the late evening hours in the presence of steep 700-500 mb lapse rates. ...Smith.. 05/07/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_NTcUAGO-JtcDh5yZ6vH3vJUSMVweZd_eK44Z9bw1GFulLYhYzQWWbyNkcc73aSdksGJGvvvT= q91tBJRuO79PkBrmXI$ for graphic product...
