MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 0410
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0429 AM CDT MON APR 18 2016
AREAS AFFECTED...EDWARDS PLATEAU
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY
VALID 180929Z - 181030Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...20 PERCENT
SUMMARY...ISOLATED LARGE HAIL POSSIBLE FOR THE NEXT HOUR OR SO
BEFORE THE SUPERCELL IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN. LIMITED SPATIAL AND
TEMPORAL EXTENT OF THE SEVERE THREAT WILL PRECLUDE THE NEED FOR A
WW.
DISCUSSION...KDFX RADAR IMAGERY DEPICTS A LONE SUPERCELL MOVING EWD
ACROSS KINNEY COUNTY. MRMS MESH OVER 2 INCHES WAS RECENTLY OBSERVED
WITH MORE RECENT SCANS INDICATING HAIL SIZES CLOSER TO ONE INCH.
VELOCITY DATA FROM KDFX SUGGESTS THE STORM HAS BEEN MORE OUTFLOW
DOMINANT WITH A REDUCTION IN THE UPDRAFT STRENGTH AS A RESULT. THIS
GENERAL WEAKENING TREND IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE AS THE STORM
TRANSITIONS TO MORE OF A LINEAR MODE. EVEN WITH THIS
TRANSITION...SOME HAIL AND STRONG WIND GUSTS ARE
POSSIBLE...PARTICULARLY WITH ANY STORM MERGERS OCCURRING WITH
DOWNSTREAM WAA-INITIATED ACTIVITY. GIVEN THE ANTICIPATED LIMITED
SPATIAL AND TEMPORAL EXTENT OF THE SEVERE THREAT...A WW IS NOT
EXPECTED.
