 - Scattered thunderstorms will continue this evening, some
   storms may be strong by severe weather is not likely.

 - Very hot to dangerously hot temperatures are expected on
   Wednesday and these temperatures may lead to heat related
   illnesses, especially in Palo Duro Canyon State Park.

 - Thunderstorm chances continue each day Wednesday and beyond
   with some storms having the potential to become severe each
   afternoon and evening. Highest chances of storms will come
   Friday through Sunday.

.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Thursday night)
Issued at 1202 AM CDT Wed Jun 10 2026

Storms continue this evening associated with the upper level
system over the interior Pacific Northwest. The wave associated
with that system has pushed through the first round of storms and
they have struggled as they have run into drier air and have
become more outflow dominate. There is a second surge of mid level
700 Theta E moisture that looks to aid in another round of storms
in the southwest Panhandles this evening. Based on the
environment already worked from previous storms the north western
Panhandles do not look as favored for storms, yet some high res
models are still suggesting it to be possible. The 700mb moisture
surge does suggest a strong warm nose bulge on forecast model
soundings in the western Panhandles and there is some lift with
another subtle wave moving through, that could be enough to
overcome the more stable air at the surface as elevated storms
could be uncapped given this moisture surge. It's challenging as
the models are liking the northwest for this evening and
overnight, but overall the south has not had the precipitation
yet, and would be more favorable. But again, despite weaker mid
level lapse rates in the north, the 700mb warm air surge would
support MU CAPE values in the 1500-2000 J/kg range in the
northwest, so can't rule it out, However, this looks more like a
hydro setup as PWAT's are going to be 1.3-1.5" very high, and the
sounding is already moist, suggesting significant melting of the
hail, and with storms being elevated, confidence in severe wind
gusts are very lackluster. Maybe the best chance to get that hail
threat would be the southwest since it hasn't gotten any storms
yet.

Wednesday will have a good push of very warm 850 mb temperatures
which will support hot to dangerously hot temperatures across the
Panhandles. We will also have a surface low that will track into
southeast Colorado and will push a strong surge of dry air across
much of the Panhandles. This will set up a dryline mainly from the
northeast Panhandles down to around the Claude to Clarendon area.
Along and east of that dryline pop up storms will be possible
(15% chance) with high DCAPE values along that area, the primary
concern would be damaging wind gusts. Otherwise the Panhandles for
the most part will be under heat highlights as widespread 100+
degree temperatures are expected, and Extreme Heat in the Palo
Duro Canyon State Park is of concern as the high could get to 110.
A fairly quiet night Wednesday night as east to southeast flow
pulls the dryline back to the western Panhandles.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Friday through Tuesday)
Issued at 1202 AM CDT Wed Jun 10 2026

Thursday we'll be looking into the next weather system that will
bring a cold front across the Panhandles, and that front could
enter as early as mid morning into the OK Panhandle. Now how fast
the front will push through plays a significant role in the severe
weather potential. Right now the best chance is across the
southeast as it's expected the front will be through most of the
Panhandles and stable air will be in place before convection can
take off. But the southeast could have very high CAPE values and
given ample forcing from the front during peak heating, severe
storms would certainly be favored for the southeast. Again, this
assumes that the front times with peak heating and it doesn't push
further south, in which the severe threat would go with it. In a
less likely scenario that the front moves slower, we would have to
expand that severe threat further north and west to maybe include
Amarillo to Canadian (but that's quite a stretch right now).

Friday and through the weekend the chances of showers and storms
will be on the rise with it peaking on Sunday. As high pressure
over the Gulf and broad scale disturbances across the northern
CONUS keep us in a more westerly flow, we will have good 700mb
Theta E moisture and multiple waves could move through and help
trigger on and off storms through the extended. Lower chances on
Friday in the 20 to 40 percent range with 40 to 60 percent in the
Saturday and Sunday timeframe, and then pops will pull back a bit
on Monday into the 20 to 40 percent range.
