These storms will be capable of 2.00+ inch hail and 60-70 MPH wind gusts, though a tornado cannot be ruled out. DISCUSSION...Supercell thunderstorms have developed along a dryline in the vicinity of the Trans-Pecos mountains, with 2500+ J/kg of MLCAPE to the east, and 45-50 kts of deep layer shear. Given boundary perpendicular shear vectors, supercell storm mode is likely to be maintained into the early evening hours. Primarily straight-line hodographs should favor splitting of supercells capable of large hail and damaging winds, particularly with left splits. Some meager low-level curvature of the hodograph from forecast proximity profiles, along with ML LCL heights around 1100-1300 meters, could support tornado occurrence as well, especially as the nocturnal low-level jet increases low-level shear into the evening. However, the primary threat will be for 2.00+ inch hail and 60-70 MPH winds. ...Halbert/Guyer.. 04/26/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!-jdgw9GiKmkUfzyQGaxEEaEUBJcssReXQRJVH88kifJiXbqfEdb7hNGW9atPk-SdCmurAN3Xh= eu-u_4IwHIYEGTrDtQ$ for graphic product...
