    Mesoscale Discussion 0371
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    1126 PM CDT Wed Apr 02 2025

    Areas affected...parts of the Pecos Valley and Edwards Plateau into
    portions of the Texas South Plains and Northwest Texas

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 030426Z - 030630Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...The initiation of scattered thunderstorm activity posing
    increasing potential for severe hail overnight may begin to increase
    as early as 1-3 AM CDT.

    DISCUSSION...Downstream of a significant short wave perturbation
    digging through the Southwest, large-scale ascent, rooted within lower/mid-tropospheric warm advection, appears to be underway. The
    environment remains relatively dry, but high based convection
    appears to be developing to the northwest and north of the San
    Angelo area. Although inhibition remains sizable, based on forecast
    soundings, models suggest that the lift, coupled with increasing
    elevated moisture return, may begin to contribute to scattered
    thunderstorm development by 06-08Z, if not earlier. Given steep
    mid-level lapse rates and strong shear in the convective layer, some
    of this may begin to pose increasing potential for severe hail
    overnight.
