Mesoscale Discussion 1754
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0651 PM CDT Tue Jul 30 2024

   Areas affected...Portions of the Texas and Oklahoma Panhandles into
   far southwest Kansas

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

   Valid 302351Z - 310115Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

   SUMMARY...An isolated strong to severe storm or two cannot be ruled
   out across portions of the TX/OK Panhandles into far southwest KS
   into this evening.

   DISCUSSION...Isolated thunderstorms are evolving along/immediately
   ahead of a lee trough/dryline extending across the TX/OK Panhandles
   into far southwest KS. Theses storms are in an environment
   characterized by surface temperatures in the low 100s F and
   dewpoints in the lower 60s. While vertical winds shear is not
   particularly strong (around 20-25 kt effective shear), the
   well-mixed boundary layer and somewhat focused mesoscale ascent
   could support an isolated strong/severe wind gust and perhaps
   marginally severe hail with any longer-lived storms. The risk
   appears too localized for a watch consideration.
