    Areas affected...southern Missouri through southwest Kentucky and
    northwest Tennessee

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

    Valid 191656Z - 191900Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms might continue to pose a risk for large hail
    and a few damaging wind gusts across southern Missouri into
    northwest Tennessee and extreme western Kentucky through mid
    afternoon. The need for a WW is uncertain at this time, but will
    ultimately depend on short-term convective trends.

    DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms continue developing over southern MO
    within zone of modest isentropic ascent north of a quasistationary
    front that extends across southern MO into northwest TN. The
    atmosphere in vicinity of the front is moderately unstable with 2600
    J/kg MUCAPE indicated on the 12Z Springfield MO RAOB. Influx of
    higher theta-e air from the destabilizing warm sector may support
    further development and intensification of storms along and just
    north of the stationary front, at least through mid afternoon. A
    limiting factor will be tendency for a shortwave ridge aloft to
    gradually build, resulting in weakening mid-level winds. However, in
    the meantime, springfield VWP data show 30-50 kt westerly flow
    between 3 and 6 km (near perpendicular to the evolving line segment
    over southwest MO). This in conjunction with a favorable
    thermodynamic environment may promote the threat for isolated large
    hail and damaging wind gusts as storms develop and move along and
    just north of the stationary front next few hours.

    Mesoscale Discussion 0460

    0154 PM CDT Sat Apr 27 2019

    Areas affected...Northeast New Mexico and the western Texas
    panhandle

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 271854Z - 272030Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated strong to occasionally severe storms are expected
    through the afternoon and evening. A severe thunderstorm watch is
    not expected.

    DISCUSSION...Widespread high-based cumulus have developed across the
    higher terrain of northern New Mexico in the last hour indicative of
    the surface based instability which has developed. However, updrafts
    have initially struggled likely due to significant dry air
    entrainment. A zone of mid-level moisture can be seen advecting
    toward this area which will help with deeper convective development
    through the afternoon. The effects of this better moisture are
    likely being captured with the storms which have developed in
    southern Colorado. In addition to the increasing mid-level moisture,
    increasing instability due to surface heating and weak upslope flow
    in northeast New Mexico will also assist with storm development this
    afternoon along and near the cold front/stationary front. Moderately
    steep mid-level lapse rates and effective shear around 45 to 50
    knots will support the threat for isolated severe storms, but
    limited instability will likely preclude a more widespread threat.
    Large hail and damaging winds will be the primary threat given the
    mid-level lapse rates and the inverted-v soundings across the area.
