...New LONG TERM...

.SHORT TERM...
(This evening through Tuesday)
Issued at 203 PM CDT Mon May 17 2021

Severe thunderstorms are expected to develop near a dry line in
eastern NM this afternoon and move east across the TX panhandle
toward the northern part of TX and southwestern OK by early evening.
Apart from the main severe hazard of large hail, the rest of tonight
and Tuesday will be dominated by heavy rainfall. The upper low over
western NM is forecast to move very slow to northeastern NM by
Tuesday evening. The abnormally moist air mass over the southern
plains will remain in place with a few periods of showers and rain
affecting southern and much of central Oklahoma beyond the daytime
Tuesday. The flood watch continues and we will add all of our
counties in northern Texas to the watch.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Tuesday night through next Sunday)
Issued at 217 PM CDT Mon May 17 2021

Multiple rounds of showers and storms are likely throughout the
week and into parts of the weekend. On Wednesday morning, showers
and storms could be ongoing as the base of an mid-level closed low
moves into the Southern Plains. As this closed low moves through
the area, weak southerly flow will persist until the next mid-
level wave moves into the the West Coast this weekend. Moderate
850 mb flow atop low to mid 60s surface dewpoints should favor
continuous precipitation chances throughout the long term.
Elevated instability appears to be in place across much of the
area through the long term, so thunderstorms are possible with any
precipitating activity. Deep-layer shear is forecasted to be
weak, so any organized severe storms do not appear likely at this
time. Subsequent forecasts and changes in the models could build
confidence with the potential for organized severe storms.

The flooding potential exists across most of the area; especially
south-central, southeastern OK, and western north TX, where
multiple inches of precipitation have already fallen (and are
forecasted to fall) before the long term period begins.
Precipitable water values are supposed to stay between 1.5-1.75
inches through the remainder of the week, which is much higher
than sounding climatology for this time of year. Any additional
heavy rainfall could pose a threat of flash flooding and prolonged
periods of flooding.

Southerly surface flow should persist through the period, which
will keep high temperatures in the mid to upper 70s into the lower
80s. In addition, mostly cloudy skies should help to keep the low
temperatures in the low to mid 60s.

The risk of severe storms generally north of Interstate 40 is
present this evening and overnight, but comparatively lower.

much of Oklahoma and all of western north Texas should prepare for
severe weather operations early this evening through late
tonight.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday...

Thunderstorm chances will continue thru Saturday. A few severe
thunderstorms will be possible Tuesday afternoon and evening
mainly across portions of eastern and southeastern Oklahoma. Hail
up to the size of golf balls and damaging wind gusts up to 60 mph
will be possible. Strong to severe storms will again be possible
across western Oklahoma and western north Texas Wednesday
afternoon and evening.

.Heavy Rainfall...
Flooding will remain possible mainly along and south of Interstate
44 thru at least Wednesday. Significant flooding may occur across
