Valid 152354Z - 160130Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 307, 309 continues. SUMMARY...The threat for large hail, severe/damaging winds, and tornadoes will continue this evening. DISCUSSION...The supercell thunderstorm complex in southern OK may be trying to grow into a small bowing cluster based on recent radar trends. The environment downstream remains quite favorable along/south of an effective warm front that extends from western/southern OK into north-central and northeast TX. Large hail will remain possible with these intense thunderstorms in the short term, and severe/damaging winds may become an increasing concern if a more linear mode becomes dominant. If this mode transition occurs, then significant severe wind gusts (75+ mph) would become more likely given the very large reservoir of buoyancy available. Backed low-level flow near the surface front is promoting a narrow corridor of 200-300 m2/s2 of effective SRH per latest mesoanalysis estimates. Given the favorable low-level shear, tornadoes will remain possible with embedded circulations. A local extension in area for Tornado Watch 309 may be needed for part of north-central into northeast TX if convection continues to track southeastward. ...Gleason.. 06/15/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!68mkROOY5RCLwNVNVmc6Dq85aW0vOOKFNaXXdw3cDP2QOIiwrX8grSHqtSllmmqfRaPzK7ujU= 4pzx0zlV149CnlwTjQ$ for graphic product...
