DISCUSSION...An isolated supercell propagating across the Stephenville vicinity has begun to weaken, but radar data, including the MRMS Mesh, suggests that it is still producing severe hail as it moves south-southeastward around 30 kt. This cell appears focused within the exit region of a strong northwesterly high-level jet (80+ kt around 300 mb), where storm-scale dynamic forcing supported by strong deep-layer shear likely has slowed storm dissipation.=20 Activity has been moving into an environment characterized by warmer mid-levels with progressively weaker mid-level lapse rates and lower precipitable water. This appears to result in a drop off in CAPE from around 1000 J/kg to around 500 J/kg south of Stephenville into the Temple vicinity, which probably will result in at least a continued gradual weakening of the cell during the next couple of hours. ...Kerr/Bunting.. 09/20/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!-5zLqU8JWu2NNATcutWxSV217MCH9cGD_NBZRCY3SSMeVcFSNNv4itpbiTw7bJLip4txSc0L0= beLb7AI2R1sucyo5pU$ for graphic product...
