Severe hail and wind are the main threats. A WW issuance is possible if confidence increases in storm longevity. DISCUSSION...Clear skies/strong surface heating have allowed convective temperatures (i.e. around 100 F) to be reached, resulting in robust initiation across western parts of the TX Panhandle. MRMS mosaic radar imagery shows these storms have 50 dBZ cores approaching 40 kft, with MESH already approaching 2 inches with the strongest storms. Latest mesoanalysis and AMA VAD profiles show hodographs with modest curvature and considerable elongation, which are contributing to 50+ kts of effective bulk shear. Regional radar shows splitting supercell structures, and these storms will be capable of producing severe wind and hail should they become sustained. As such, a WW issuance my be needed pending convective trends. ...Squitieri/Smith.. 08/05/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_0ZiL8i0Jkg8B_iabdI-aUETDRUzUPrJvhqXwB_nKlIUZNwCJqo1XlBrFEcRRUTo6w2SVKQfq= tWvzDhB55rQhXYNshI$ for graphic product...
