Mesoscale Discussion 1240
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1233 PM CDT Tue Jun 10 2025
Areas affected...portions of southeastern New Mexico into western
Texas
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely
Valid 101733Z - 101900Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent
SUMMARY...Storms capable of large to very large hail and severe
winds this afternoon.
DISCUSSION...Thunderstorm activity has begun across the Davis
Mountains in Texas and Sacramento Mountains in New Mexico.
Temperatures in these regions have warmed into the low to mid 80s,
with MLCIN remaining but eroding through time.
Deep layer shear 35-40 kts amid 1000-2000 J/kg of MLCAPE and steep
lapse rates will support potential for large to very large hail and
severe winds. Initial storm mode will likely be supercellular before
a more mixed mode of multi-cell clusters. As this shift occurs, the
severe wind risk will increase. A Severe Thunderstorm Watch is
needed to cover these risks.
