    Areas affected...Oklahoma

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely=20

    Valid 020214Z - 020345Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

    SUMMARY...Severe thunderstorm watch will likely be issued for much
    of Oklahoma. Hail and wind are possible with overnight convection.

    DISCUSSION...Low-amplitude short-wave trough is digging southeast
    across the High Plains, currently extending from western KS into the
    western TX Panhandle. A loosely organized band of thunderstorms has
    developed ahead of this feature and should continue propagating
    toward western OK over the next few hours. Additionally, surface
    boundary has sharpened a bit downstream, extending from near
    TUL-southern McClain County-near Lawton. As 1km flow increases into
    this frontal corridor later this evening it appears this boundary
    may encourage robust thunderstorm development. Most high-res models
    favor some version of this scenario, and strong shear will prove
    beneficial in potential organization. Hail and damaging winds are
    the primary concern and a severe thunderstorm watch appears
    warranted.
