396 ACUS02 KWNS 100555 SWODY2 SPC AC 100554 Day 2 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1254 AM CDT Sun Aug 10 2025 Valid 111200Z - 121200Z ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CENTERED OVER THE TEXAS PANHANDLE AND SOUTH PLAINS... ...SUMMARY... A few marginally severe storms will be possible Monday from late afternoon through the evening, centered over the southern Texas Panhandle and South Plains. Scattered notable storms may also occur over parts of North Dakota into northern Minnesota. ...Southern High Plains to the Lower MO Valley... Relatively cool midlevel temperatures will remain over the Plains, with 20-25 kt midlevel westerlies. At the surface, a moist axis will extend roughly from the eastern TX Panhandle into MO, with northeast surface winds from KS into northwest TX early. As heating occurs, low-level winds should veer to east/southeast, with around 2000 J/kg MUCAPE developing by peak heating. Storms are likely to develop from northeast NM into TX as the air mass will be uncapped. Directional wind change with height will support a few longer-lived cells producing hail. A few aggregate clusters may also produce locally severe gusts through early evening. ...ND into northern MN... A speed max will dive southeastward out of SK and MT, with midlevel vorticity maximum spread across ND and northwest MN late in the day. This will occur at a time of peak heating near a surface trough which will be draped NE to SW across the area. Given the focus for ascent and uncapped air mass, scattered storms will develop beneath the cool temperatures aloft. Despite limited moisture, a few cells may produce primarily small hail and locally strong gusts. ..Jewell.. 08/10/2025 $$
