    Areas affected...Portions of southern and central Oklahoma

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 91...

    Valid 020122Z - 020215Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 91 continues.

    SUMMARY...The tornado threat appears to have decreased
    substantially, especially in the near term. Isolated large hail and
    locally severe gusts remain possible with ongoing thunderstorm.

    DISCUSSION...The earlier cluster of splitting supercells has
    devolved into one isolated/weakening storm tracking northeastward
    across south-central OK. This storm appears to have missed a narrow
    window of opportunity for intensification into a dominant
    right-moving supercell -- owing to weak forcing for ascent and
    lingering inhibition (per 00Z OUN sounding). While this storm will
    still pose a risk of isolated large hail and locally severe gusts,
    the tornado threat appears to have decreased substantially --
    especially in the near term.=20

    Additional thunderstorm development will be possible during the
    overnight/early morning hours along the front, and any associated
    severe threat will be handled with an additional future watch if
    needed.
