Valid 080303Z - 080400Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 31 continues. SUMMARY...Scattered convection will linger across mainly the northern/central portions of ww31 this evening. DISCUSSION...Surface front is gradually advancing south across the southern High Plains this evening but convection has not developed along this boundary to any degree across northwest OK. Most robust convection has gradually weakened, partially due to weaker buoyancy due to onset of nocturnal cooling. Additionally, 1km AGL flow has gradually veered and this is not particularly advantageous given the decreasing instability. 00z sounding from OKC exhibited steep lapse rates, but PW values are seasonally low around 3/4". With boundary-layer decoupling it may become increasingly difficult to maintain organized severe updrafts. While an isolated hail report can not be ruled out, overall trends suggest severe threat will remain marginal from this point forward. ...Darrow.. 03/08/2024 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!5DEPm5BOg0WGVQwxyq9hFoJtlUqP33UqOcVgRfGLTCLEURZpOSyTOXaM3DlC_wVCKPWt2ieSa= 3VdWp1YfSDCoN8zFNw$ for graphic product...
