Scattered large hail and isolated damaging winds are possible this afternoon and evening across central and east Texas. More isolated severe thunderstorms are possible across parts of the Middle Tennessee Valley and Carolinas, High Plains, northern Rockies, and south Florida. ...Central/East Texas... A residual small cluster of storms has persisted through late morning across northeast Texas. Additional and increasingly surface-based storm development will be possible this afternoon, particularly into mid/late afternoon. This will be focused where outflow/differential heating influences interface with an increasingly unstable (2500+ J/kg MLCAPE) environment near a northwest/southeast-oriented synoptic boundary and related instability gradient. Northwesterly deep-layer shear of 35-40 kt will be sufficient for organized storms, including supercells, posing a risk for large hail and potentially damaging wind gusts. A sustained storm interacting with residual/modifying outflow could have some tornado potential in the presence of locally-augmented low-level shear. These storms may cluster later today, or otherwise persist south-southeastward toward east-central/southeast Texas through early and mid-evening including the I-35/I-45 corridors. ...Tennessee to the Carolinas... Despite relatively modest low-level moisture, diurnal heating combined with seasonably cool temperatures aloft associated with a deep upper-level trough will allow for weak to moderate destabilization ahead of a weak surface wave and advancing front. Isolated to scattered storm development is expected this afternoon, with somewhat greater coverage expected with eastward extent centered on parts of North Carolina. Modestly favorable effective shear (generally 25-30 kt) may support occasionally organized storms capable of isolated damaging wind and hail. Any longer-lived clusters could pose a more concentrated wind-damage threat. ...Northern Rockies and northern High Plains... A mid/upper-level shortwave trough will move eastward from the Pacific Northwest toward the northern Rockies by this evening. Weak to locally moderate buoyancy and increasing deep-layer shear will support the potential for somewhat organized cells/clusters with an attendant threat of isolated severe gusts and hail. This development should generally focus near the Montana/Idaho/Wyoming border vicinity as well as near/east of the Bighorns. ...South Florida... Influenced by moderately strong westerlies aloft, some strong/locally severe storms may remain possible today along and south of a boundary that has been effectively reinforced by early day storms. ...Eastern Colorado/New Mexico... Scattered storms are again expected this afternoon and evening along and east of the higher terrain in eastern Colorado/New Mexico. While deep-layer flow/shear will be relatively modest, guidance suggests some increase in low-level moisture and instability by afternoon. Initial storms could pose a threat for isolated hail and strong to severe gusts. There is some potential for one or more loosely organized clusters to develop by evening and spread eastward with strong to locally severe outflow winds. ...Southern California into southern/central Arizona... A mid/upper-level cyclone will move northeastward into parts of southern California/Arizona later today. Cool temperatures aloft will overspread the region, but relatively widespread cloudiness and precipitation will tend to limit destabilization. If pockets of locally stronger heating/destabilization can develop, then a few strong storms could occur. ...Great Basin... High-based thunderstorms are expected to develop this afternoon from parts of Nevada into western Utah. Buoyancy and shear are expected to remain weak, and organized thunderstorms are not expected, however localized strong outflow gusts will be possible within this regime through early evening. ..Guyer/Marsh.. 06/01/2025 $$ |
