    Mesoscale Discussion 1310
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0308 PM CDT Fri Aug 17 2018

    Areas affected...TX Panhandle...Northwest TX...Far Northeast NM

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 172008Z - 172215Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated damaging wind gusts and hail are possible this
    afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms have recently developed in the vicinity
    of a weak surface low centered east-northeast of AMA as well as
    along a remnant boundary left over from thunderstorms yesterday
    evening. Continued thunderstorm development is anticipated near
    these features and any an outflow emanating from the ongoing storms. Instability throughout the region is relatively modest (i.e. MLCAPE
    around 1000-1500 J/kg based on the latest mesoanalysis) and vertical
    shear is very weak. Resulting lack of thunderstorm organization
    should preclude a severe threat widespread enough to merit a watch.
    Even so, high-based character of these storms amidst a deeply mixed
    boundary layer may support a few strong wind gusts. Hail is also
    possible, particularly within the early stages of newly developing
    updrafts.
