Valid 200843Z - 201015Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 266 continues. SUMMARY...Locally strong/damaging gusts will likely continue over the next 1 to 2 hours, though a gradual decrease in convective intensity is anticipated. DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows a cluster of convection across roughly the northeastern quarter of Oklahoma -- most intense along its southern flank. As the individual storms move in a generally easterly direction at around 35 kt, the overall area of storms continues to sag gradually southeastward -- north of southward-moving outflow. With the convection slightly elevated for the most part atop the aforementioned outflow, severe-caliber wind gusts have become sparse, with the last reported about around 3 AM at Tulsa (51 kt).=20 In general, a slow decreasing trend in convective intensity (and thus severe potential) should continue over the next couple of hours, as storms encounter a progressive/gradual decrease in surface-based instability both areally and temporally. Still, an occasional stronger gust or two -- near severe levels -- will remain possible in the short term. ...Goss.. 05/20/2024 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!6JhJSvpE10KuEITF-ydliHygVvLmZxSPMU5kyohSDIsGl03QrF3T2xNG0fUWXo5IoXEohq_UA= 2_0cTXvM4togLIS48k$ for graphic product...
