    Areas affected...parts of northeast Texas...Southwest Arkansas and
    far southeast Oklahoma

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 051748Z - 051945Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Maturing elevated storms may pose a risk for hail through
    the afternoon hours.

    DISCUSSION...As of 1745 UTC, regional radar imagery showed
    intensifying elevated convection northwest of the well-defined
    frontal corridor across eastern TX. Recent reports of severe hail in
    Navarro County, along with increasing CAPPI/MESH cores these storms
    will likely continue to intensify. SPC mesoanalysis shows 500-1000
    J/kg of MUCAPE atop surface temperatures in the 50s and 40s F.
    Southwesterly mid-level shear of 50-60 kt is supporting of
    supercells. With most of the CAPE distributed above the freezing
    layer, severe hail with the max potential near 1.75 inches is likely
    with the deeper cores.

    HRRR guidance and radar trends suggest these storms may persist for
    several hours farther northeast into parts of OK and AR. While
    buoyancy gradually decreases, MUCAPE around 500 J/kg should remain
    sufficient for isolated hail with the deeper supercell structures.
    Given the isolated nature of the threat, a WW is not expected, but
    trends are being monitored.
