Valid 070741Z - 070945Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 457 continues. SUMMARY...Severe hail and wind risk will shift southeast into the Oklahoma and Texas Panhandles and northwest Oklahoma over the next couple of hours. DISCUSSION...Three supercells from Baca County CO to Meade County KS will continue to shift southeast toward the OK Panhandle/northwest OK over the next hour. These storms are likely still capable of producing large hail, potentially to near 2 inch diameter based on MRMS MESH data. While this activity remains semi-discrete, there have been signs of some organization into a cluster over the past 30-60 minutes. VWP data from KAMA indicates a southerly low-level jet around 30-40 kt. This low-level jet, coupled with MUCAPE around 1500-2000 J/kg, will aid in continued organization and intensity over the next couple of hours. Most recent storm reports indicate 1.5 inch hail and gusts to 51 kt. If a more organized cluster/bow can evolve over the next 1-2 hours, damaging wind potential may increase across the OK/TX Panhandle/northwest OK vicinity.=20 Latest CAM guidance suggests a southeast surging cluster will persist past the 11z expiration time for WW 457, and the overall environment should support organized convection persisting toward 12z. Current tracking shows this activity reaching the edges of the watch around 09-10z/4-5 am CDT in some areas. Depending on convective trends, a local watch extension or a new downstream severe thunderstorm watch may be necessary. ...Leitman.. 07/07/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!9mQTPSQPYOVbNJjs2gkHkwURl_foKAveZM5OQ27Xf8_GdtriRJNcxJI3fyy3utvJy_g93CeA5= _oi-p4C5W7KjzBYTOI$ for graphic product...
