Isolated severe thunderstorms may also occur across portions of the south-central High Plains and northern California/southwest Oregon. 20z Update central and southern Plains Thunderstorm development remains likely late this afternoon and this evening along the frontal zone from southern NE into northeast KS. While remnant cloud cover has slowed destabilization, sufficient buoyancy and supercell wind profiles will likely support a risk for hail, damaging gusts and perhaps a tornado or two this afternoon/evening. See MCD #367 for specific short-term information. Farther south along the trailing surface trough/dryline, more isolated thunderstorm development is expected across the TX Panhandle and far eastern NM. High cloud bases with deep inverted-v structures could support isolated severe wind gusts with the heavier cores. Storm coverage is likely to decrease farther south where weaker forcing and overall more limited buoyancy is present. Still, isolated storms are possible, and the 5% wind area was expanded southward slightly for the latest hi-res guidance. CA and OR East of an upper low, broad-scale ascent over a modestly warm/moist air mass was supporting widely scattered thunderstorms over portions of northern CA and southern OR. While overall buoyancy is weak (generally below 500 J/kg of MLCAPE), strengthening southerly flow aloft could support a few organized clusters or transient supercells capable of producing isolated strong to severe gusts and some hail.
