    Mesoscale Discussion 2110
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0346 PM CDT Sun Sep 21 2025

    Areas affected...Parts of north Texas and far south-central OK

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 212046Z - 212245Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...Severe risk will increase over the next few hours. The
    primary concerns will be large hail and severe wind gusts. A watch
    may be needed for parts of the area.

    DISCUSSION...The latest surface observations and visible satellite
    imagery indicate a remnant outflow boundary shifting slightly
    northward in north-central TX -- potentially in response to an
    evolving surface low over the Rolling Plains. Boundary-layer cumulus
    is deepening along the outflow boundary, and isolated convective
    initiation is underway. Ample diurnal heating/destabilization amid
    upper 60s/lower 70s dewpoints and steep midlevel lapse rates are
    contributing to moderate surface-based buoyancy. This buoyancy and
    around 50 kt of effective shear (with enhanced low-level clockwise
    curvature) should initially favor a couple semi-discrete supercells
    -- with a risk of large hail and locally severe wind gusts. With
    time, storms may congeal into clusters while tracking
    east-southeastward, which would promote an increasing severe-wind
    risk. While the primary concern for severe storms is in north TX, a
    couple strong to severe storms capable of producing large hail will
    remain possible across southern OK.

    While storm coverage and the spatial extent of the threat is
    somewhat uncertain, a watch may be needed for parts of the area.
