What was reported inside it
| Time | Report | Where | Remark |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jun 12, 3:43 PM CDT | HAIL 1 | 5 S Hereford, TX |
Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.
Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this tornado warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.
Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.
The watch it was issued in

.AVIATION...
MVFR CEILINGS EXPECTED TO PREVAIL THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
OCCASIONAL THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED TO IMPACT ALL TERMINALS THROUGH
TONIGHT. IFR CEILINGS AND AT LEAST MVFR BR EXPECTED TO DEVELOP
BEFORE SUNRISE. SLOW IMPROVEMENT TO MVFR CEILINGS EXPECTED LATE
SATURDAY MORNING.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 646 AM CDT FRI JUN 12 2015/
AVIATION...
12Z TAFS...IFR TO MVFR CEILINGS ACROSS MOST OF THE PANHANDLES THIS
MORNING. THE POTENTIAL REMAINS FOR THESE LOW CIGS TO PERSIST INTO THE
AFTERNOON ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE OKLAHOMA AND FAR NORTHWESTERN TEXAS PANHANDLES...BUT
CONFIDENCE IS LOW. WIND DIRECTION IS ALSO A CHALLENGE THIS AFTERNOON DUE
TO THE UNKNOWN PROGRESSION OF THE COLD FRONT. FOR NOW...HAVE KEPT
NORTHERLY WINDS IN THIS SAME AREA WITH SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS ELSEWHERE.
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP THIS
AFTERNOON...AND HAVE PUT THE MOST LIKELY TIMING IN THE TAFS FOR
NOW...BUT THIS WILL LIKELY CHANGE AS THE SOUTHWARD EXTENT OF THE FRONT
BECOMES CLEAR LATER THIS MORNING. MEDIUM CONFIDENCE IN A RETURN TO
MVFR OR IFR CIGS LATE TONIGHT OR EARLY SATURDAY MORNING.
ELSENHEIMER
PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 450 AM CDT FRI JUN 12 2015/
DISCUSSION...
CHALLENGING FORECAST FOR THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. BROAD UPPER
LEVEL TROUGH CENTERED JUST EAST OF THE FOUR CORNERS REGION EJECTED A
PRETTY DECENT SHORTWAVE EARLY THIS MORNING. THIS UPPER LEVEL
ENERGY...COUPLED WITH A STRONG LOW LEVEL JET WILL ALLOW SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO PERSIST ACROSS THE OKLAHOMA AND EASTERN
TEXAS PANHANDLE. THESE STORMS HAVE FALLEN BELOW SEVERE LIMITS...AND
ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN THERE FOR THE REST OF THE MORNING HOURS.
THINGS BECOME COMPLICATED AS A SURFACE COLD FRONT IS PROGGED TO DROP
SOUTHWARD...AND WHERE THE CHALLENGE COMES IN FOR THIS AFTERNOON. WIND
FIELD SHOWS NORTHERLY WINDS THROUGH A GOOD PORTION OF THE TEXAS
PANHANDLE...BUT DEWPOINTS REMAIN IN THE LOW TO MID 60S MUCH FURTHER
NORTH OF THE WIND SHIFT. GUIDANCE SUGGESTS THE FRONT CONTINUES
PUSHING SOUTHWARD OVER THE WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE PANHANDLES...AND
WILL RETREAT NORTHWARD/NOT PROGRESS AS FAR SOUTHWARD FOR THE EASTERN
HALF OF THE PANHANDLES DUE TO A DEEPENING SURFACE TROUGH OVER WEST
TEXAS/SOUTHEASTERN NEW MEXICO. FOR NOW...HAVE OPTED TO GO WITH THIS
SOLUTION. AS SUCH...THE EASTERN HALF OF THE CWA APPEARS TO BE THE
MAIN FOCUS OF WHERE SEVERE WEATHER COULD OCCUR TODAY. ANOTHER
SHORTWAVE LOOKS TO ARRIVE THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO THIS EVENING TO
PROVIDE UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT. SOUTHEASTERLY SURFACE FLOW WILL CONTINUE
TO ADVECT IN PLENTY OF MOISTURE ALONG A BROAD AREA OF SURFACE
CONVERGENCE ALONG THE FRONT AND FROM ANY REMAINING OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES
FROM OVERNIGHT CONVECTION. BULK SHEAR VALUES IN THE 30 TO 50KT RANGE
WITH VEERING PROFILES WILL SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF
SUPERCELLS...AND FORECAST SOUNDINGS SUGGEST PLENTY OF INSTABILITY TO
WORK WITH AS LONG AS THE FRONT REMAINS/IS PUSHED BACK FURTHER NORTH.
OTHER THAN ANY SEVERE STORMS THAT DEVELOP...THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY
RAIN AND FLOODING/FLASH FLOODING REMAINS THE MAIN CONCERN THROUGH THE
WEEKEND. NOCTURNAL LOW LEVEL JET ALSO IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP IN A
SIMILAR FASHION TO LAST NIGHT...ALLOWING CONVECTION TO PERSIST AND
CONTINUE BUILDING THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS IN THE EASTERN
PANHANDLES. HAVE ISSUED FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR THAT PORTION OF THE CWA
UNTIL SATURDAY AFTERNOON...THOUGH CONFIDENCE IS LOW ON THE
NORTHWARD AND WESTWARD EXTENT OF THE WATCH AS WELL AS THE DURATION
AND MAY NEED TO BE REFINED WITH THE NEXT FORECAST PACKAGE.
AT LEAST BROAD UPPER LEVEL TROUGHING/SOMEWHAT ZONAL FLOW REMAINS
OVER THE REGION THROUGH MONDAY...AND VARIOUS SHORTWAVES WILL CONTINUE
TO CROSS THE AREA AND SPARK OFF ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
OVERALL THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER CONTINUES TO WANE DURING THIS
PERIOD...BUT THE POTENTIAL FOR FLOODING WILL LIKELY REMAIN A CONCERN.
TIMING IS ALSO DIFFICULT IN THESE SCENARIOS TO PIN DOWN THE MOST
LIKELY PERIODS FOR ADDITIONAL RAINFALL AS IT IS STRONGLY DEPENDENT ON
THE PREVIOUS DAY/S ACTIVITY AND TRACKING SHORTWAVES THROUGH THE FLOW.
MORE OF A NORTHWEST FLOW SCENARIO LOOKS TO SETUP MIDWEEK AS THE RIDGE
REMAINS OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN U.S. AND MAIN JET STREAM REMAINS OVER
THE NORTHERN PLAINS.
