...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM FORECAST DISCUSSION...

DRY LINE/FRONTAL BOUNDARY NOW MOVING INTO ERN NM WHILE VERY MOIST/UNSTABLE AMS EXTENDS AHEAD OF BOUNDARIES THROUGH WRN/CNTRL TX. LIFTED INDICES HERE ALREADY BELOW MINUS 8 WITH AMS MOVING NWD INTO OK AS SURFACE LOW INTENSIFIES OVER EXTREME ERN CO. WITH LOW LEVEL CYCLONE TO THE NORTHEAST...LOW LEVEL JET WILL REMAIN AT OR ABOVE 45 KT THRU CNTRL TX AND OK MOST OF PD...EHANCING LOW LEVEL WARM AIR/MOISTURE ADVECTION THRU OK INTO KS. MID LEVEL WINDS OF 60 KT OR HIGHER WILL ALSO EXTEND THRU MDT/HIGH RISK AREAS AS DEEP UPPER LOW CENTER MOVES SLOWLY EWD...ALLOWING MORE FRAVORABLE UPPER FORCING TO ADVANCE INTO NWRN TX AND WRN/CNTRL OK. EXPECT STRONGEST STORMS TO FIRE NEAR DRY LINE/WARM FRONT INTERSECTION WHERE LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE STRONGEST.

WILL ISSUE PWO SHORTLY.

...GENERAL THUNDERSTORM FORECAST DISCUSSION...

VRY LITTLE CHANGE IN GEN TSTM PTN OF THIS OTLK. MAJOR TROF CONTS MOVG SLOWLY EWD FM SRN PARTS OF AZ ATTM. COMBINATION OF UPR LVL CD AIR AND DAYTIME SFC HEATING SHOULD STEEPEN LAPSE RATES SUFFICIENTLY TO SUPPORT ISOLD TSTMS ACRS THE RCKYS...AND MORE WIDESPREAD CNVTN
ACRS THE PLAINS AND MS VLY THRU THE REMAINDER OF THE PD. THE ONLY CHANGE TO THIS OTLK IS THE REMOVAL OF THE LWR RIO GRANDE VLY OF TX. MORNING SOUNDING FM BRO SHOWS A VRY STG CAP WHICH SHOULD PRECLUDE TSTM DVLPMT.

IN FL...ISOLD TSTMS ARE PSBL ACRS THE SRN PARTS OF THE PEN IN RESPONSE TO THE SEA BREEZE FNT AND DAYTIME HEATING. THE AMS IS SRN FL IS ALREADY UNSTBL WITH SFC BASED LI/S TO -5. LACK OF STG UPR DYNAMICS WL LIKELY PRECLUDE SVR DVLPMT.
