MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 0527
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0808 PM CDT WED MAY 06 2015
AREAS AFFECTED...WRN AND CENTRAL OK/WRN N TX
CONCERNING...TORNADO WATCH 133...
VALID 070108Z - 070215Z
THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 133 CONTINUES.
SUMMARY...SCATTERED SEVERE/SUPERCELL STORMS CONTINUE ACROSS PARTS OF
WW 133 -- WHERE ALL-HAZARD SEVERE RISK PERSISTS.
DISCUSSION...SEVERAL SEVERE/SUPERCELL STORMS ARE ONGOING ATTM FROM
CENTRAL KS SWD INTO THE TX SOUTH PLAINS...IN AT LEAST THREE CLUSTERS
-- ONE OVER NRN OK...ONE OVER CENTRAL OK...AND A THIRD OVER SWRN
OK/WRN N TX. STORM COVERAGE HAS GRADUALLY INCREASED -- PARTICULARLY
OVER SRN PORTIONS OF THE WW AS THE LOW-LEVEL JET AND ASSOCIATED
ASCENT/WARM ADVECTION INCREASE.
ATTM...IT APPEARS THAT SEVERE RISK -- MAINLY IN THE FORM OF LARGE
HAIL AND LOCALLY DAMAGING WINDS -- MAY CONTINUE FOR AT LEAST THE
NEXT FEW HOURS...GIVEN A BACKGROUND ENVIRONMENT WHICH REMAINS
SUPPORTIVE FOR SUPERCELLS. WHILE TENDENCY MAY BE FOR
CLUSTERING/MESSIER STORM MODE WITH TIME -- AND AN INCREASE IN RISK
FOR LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN...SEVERE/ISOLATED TORNADO POTENTIAL LIKELY TO
PERSIST BEYOND 02Z /THE SCHEDULED EXPIRATION FOR WW 133/ SUGGESTS
THAT A NEW WW FOR AT LEAST PARTS OF THIS AREA WILL BE NEEDED.
