    Mesoscale Discussion 2041
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0208 PM CST Thu Dec 16 2021

    Areas affected...Portions of the ArkLaTex to the Mid-South

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

    Valid 162008Z - 162245Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...An isolated/marginal severe threat may exist this
    afternoon. Watch issuance is unlikely.

    DISCUSSION...A cold front is draped southwest to northeast across
    the ArkLaTex and Mid-South this afternoon. Modestly enhanced
    low/mid-level southwesterly winds are forecast to gradually weaken
    though the remainder of the day. Still, enough flow remains to
    support around 30-40 kt of effective bulk shear. Even with cloud
    cover prevalent across much of the warm sector, filtered diurnal
    heating of a moist low-level airmass is supporting MLCAPE generally
    ranging from 500-1500 J/kg. The better large-scale ascent aloft will
    remain displaced well to the north, with limited low-level
    convergence along the cold front owing to a large degree of
    front-parallel flow aloft. Still, isolated to scattered storms will
    remain possible through the rest of the afternoon. The combination
    of sufficient instability and deep-layer shear should be adequate
    for some storm organization, with occasional strong/gusty winds
    capable of producing mainly tree damage the main threat. An instance
    or two of marginally severe hail and perhaps a brief tornado also
    appears possible. Given the expectation for the overall severe
    threat to remain isolated/marginal, watch issuance is unlikely.
