What happened

The episode as NWS AMA wrote it up.

A favorable northwest flow aloft pattern and abundant moisture resulted in a round of severe convection for the 22nd and into the early morning hours of the 23rd. A discrete supercell developed over the Oklahoma Panhandle during the early afternoon hours of the 22nd. This supercell would go on to produce several brief tornadoes and hail up to the size of tennis balls while slowly moving southward across the far eastern Oklahoma and Texas Panhandles. The outflow from this tornadic supercell interacted with discrete storms developing along a southward moving cold front over western Kansas, and caused the storms to transition into a linear structure. This line would enter the central Oklahoma Panhandle and north central Texas Panhandle around 8 PM CST. Both the line of thunderstorms and the tornadic supercell moved southward across the Texas Panhandle before the tornadic supercell joined with line around 11 PM CST. The combined line moved southward and exited the southern Texas Panhandle around 1 AM CST on the 23rd.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AMARILLO TX
436 PM CDT SUN JUN 22 2014

...HEAVY RAIN/SEVERE WEATHER POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT...

.DISCUSSION...

THE MAIN FOCUS OF THIS FORECAST WILL BE ON CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON
AND TONIGHT. THUNDERSTORMS ARE DEVELOPING AND A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM
WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED ALREADY FOR A MAJORITY OF THE PANHANDLES
EXCLUDING FAR SOUTH AND SW AREAS.

MLCAPE VALUES OF 3000 J/KG AND EFFECTIVE SHEAR OF 40 KTS DUE TO A
WEAK BUT NICELY VEERING WIND PROFILE WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT
ORGANIZED CONVECTION. INITIAL CELLS THIS AFTERNOON WILL HAVE THE
POTENTIAL TO BE SUPERCELLULAR WITH LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS THE
MAIN THREATS. LATER THIS EVENING...EXPECT CLUSTERS OF THUNDERSTORMS
IN ERN CO AND SWRN KS TO BEGIN TO INTERACT AND GROW UPSCALE TO A
FORWARD PROPAGATING, STRONG WIND PRODUCING MCS AIDED BY EXPECTED
COLD POOL DEVELOPMENT. 850-300 MEAN WINDS AND CORFIDI VECTORS
SUGGEST RAPID FORWARD SPEED INTO THE EASTERN PANHANDLES. LIFTING ON
THE LEADING EDGE SHOULD BE MORE THAN SUFFICIENT IN OUR AREA TO KEEP
THE SYSTEM PROPAGATING SE. ON THE WRN EDGE OF THE EXPECTED MCS...
OUTFLOW INTERACTION WITH A DEVELOPING LOW LVL JET COULD RESULT IN
ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY FURTHER WEST TOWARD AMARILLO LATE
THIS EVENING/VERY EARLY MON MORNING. OVERALL BEST CHANCES FOR STORMS
AND SVR WX WILL BE IN THE ERN HALF OF THE PANHANDLES. FORECAST
SOUNDINGS INDICATE HEAVY RAIN AS A CERTAINTY WITH STORMS BUT HAVE
REFRAINED FROM ISSUING A FLASH FLOOD WATCH DUE TO EXPECTED RAPID
FORWARD MOTION OF THE MAIN MCS.

STORM CHANCES CONTINUE INTO AT LEAST THE MIDDLE PART OF THE WEEK...
BUT A LOT WILL DEPEND ON HOW FAR SOUTH THE COLD FRONT SURGES TONIGHT
AND WHAT KIND OF ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT WE GET ALONG IT LATE TONIGHT
AND/OR TOMORROW. THINK THERE WILL BE SOME NWD MIXING OF THE FRONT
TOMORROW AND ANOTHER ROUND OF STORMS WILL DEFINITELY BE POSSIBLE
ALONG THIS BOUNDARY MON EVENING SO WENT AHEAD AND INCREASED POPS IN
THE SW TX PANHANDLE FOR MON NIGHT.

UNCERTAINTY CONTINUES TO BE HIGH LATER IN THE PERIOD AS MED RANGE
MODELS VARY WILDLY ON THE OVERALL UPR PATTERN.

TEMPERATURES WILL GENERALLY REMAIN WITHIN 5-10 DEGREES OF NORMAL.
