   Mesoscale Discussion 0758
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0132 PM CDT Sun May 12 2024

   Areas affected...Far eastern Colorado...western Kansas...Oklahoma
   Panhandle

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

   Valid 121832Z - 122030Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

   SUMMARY...Landspouts along with marginally severe hail/wind gusts
   are possible this afternoon.

   DISCUSSION...Convection is developing in the Raton Mesa vicinity. As
   surface temperatures continue to rise, low-level buoyancy will
   maximize within the next few hours. The vertically stacked
   surface/upper-level lows will provide ambient vorticity. A few
   landspouts will be possible as storms develop through the afternoon.
   Cold temperatures aloft and steep lapse rates through the
   troposphere will also promote some risk for marginally severe hail
   and wind gusts.
