Areas affected...North Texas

Concerning...Tornado Watch 148...

Valid 260615Z - 260715Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 148 continues.

SUMMARY...Long-lived supercell cluster should begin to weaken by
07-08z. Large hail, wind damage and an isolated tornado will be
possible in the interim.

DISCUSSION...A long-lived, small supercell cluster continues to move
across the DFW Metroplex with the more recent hail reports in the
1-1.75 inch range and measured gusts of 40-46 kt (61 kt measured at
KNFW ~45 minutes ago). These storms remain in a relatively
favorable environment close to the axis of largest MLCAPE and weaker
convective inhibition, and a VWPs show 30-40 kt southerly storm
inflow. However, storm outflow has tended to spread southeast of
the main updrafts, and a gradual decrease in buoyancy and increase
in the cap should lead to a weakening trend by roughly 07-08z. In
the interim, occasional large hail and strong-severe outflow gusts
will be possible.
