    Mesoscale Discussion 0845
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    1246 AM CDT Sun May 24 2026

    Areas affected...Parts of western North TX and far southwestern OK

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

    Valid 240546Z - 240715Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Potential for sporadic strong-severe gusts will continue
    for another hour or so.

    DISCUSSION...A cluster of thunderstorms with a recent history of
    producing measured gusts of 60-75 mph is tracking east-southeastward
    across western North TX and far southwestern OK. While large-scale
    forcing for ascent is weak and the low-level jet is not particularly
    strong, recent radar data from LBB and FDR indicate a trailing
    stratiform region and signs of an established (albeit modest)
    rear-inflow jet. Related cold pool dynamics should continue to
    support new updrafts along the leading gust front as it tracks east-southeastward through a corridor of weakly unstable air, and
    sporadic strong-severe gusts will remain possible before this
    cluster weakens over the next couple hours.
