    Areas affected...Northeast Oklahoma

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 231747Z - 231945Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...A band of thunderstorms may produce sporadic wind damage
    through the mid-afternoon hours. Given the marginal downstream
    environment, watch issuance is not expected.

    DISCUSSION...A semi-organized band of thunderstorms has emerged to
    the northwest of the Tulsa, OK metro over the past hour with a
    consolidated coldpool/outflow evident in nearby KINX imagery.
    Although most wind reports thus far have been between 20-30 mph,
    GOES IR imagery and lightning counts suggest that this band has been
    slowly strengthening. Further downstream, widespread cloud cover and
    cool outflow from prior convection is muting diurnal heating;
    nonetheless, temperatures are warming into the mid/upper 70s with an
    attendant increase in MLCAPE noted in recent mesoanalyses.
    Consequently, further intensification of the line appears possible
    in the next few hours and may support an increase in damaging wind
    potential. VWP observations from KINX show a fairly modest kinematic environment, which will likely act to modulate overall storm
    intensity and preclude the need for watch issuance.
