Extreme buoyancy and strong vertical shear will likely support splitting supercells with a risk for large to giant hail and damaging winds. DISCUSSION...Across portions of north-central and northeastern TX, afternoon visible imagery showed deepening cumulus towers along a remnant outflow boundary from previous convection. As the boundary has modified through the afternoon, extreme instability has developed (5000 J/kg of MLCAPE) owing to unusually steep mid-level lapse rates and mid 70s F surface dewpoints. The strong buoyancy colocated with 60-70 kt of effective shear observed from the 18z FTW sounding is supportive of potentially intense splitting supercells. Given the favorable storm mode and extreme cape/shear space, giant hail (3+ in) hail will be possible with the most intense storms across north-central and northeast TX. Depending on storm coverage, some upscale growth later this evening into one or more organized bowing clusters may also favor a risk for damaging wind gusts. A new Severe Thunderstorm watch will likely be needed this afternoon. ...Lyons/Thompson.. 06/14/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!7NYVAf00YPkOgf2L93-oaMiPoTxd825_w_DTEBW49ZN2Sm0Upn6a0mT5srzaQJaRdkxw5OPvq= J0mzw4kpxXZM57uTpc$ for graphic product...
