Mesoscale Discussion 0155

   Areas affected...Parts of north-central into northeast TX

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

   Valid 081159Z - 081400Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

   SUMMARY...A threat for hail and locally strong gusts will spread
   from north-central into northeast Texas through sunrise.

   DISCUSSION...A pair of long-lived, elevated supercells are moving
   across southern portions of the Metroplex early this morning, with
   MRMS data suggesting these cells have produced long swaths of
   subsevere to occasionally severe hail. Strong flow above 3 km (as
   noted on the KFWS VWP) will continue to support sufficient effective
   shear for storm organization as these cells move quickly
   east-northeastward through and after sunrise. 

   MUCAPE of 500-1000 J/kg and relatively cold temperatures aloft will
   continue to provide a favorable thermodynamic profile for hail with
   these cells, though generally limited storm depth (with echo tops
   generally below 35 kft) may continue to limit the maximum hail sizes
   to some extent. Strong gusts will also continue to be possible with
   these cells, as noted earlier with a 42 kt gust in Cleburne.
