...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS NORTHEAST
TX TO AR AND SOUTHERN MO...

...SUMMARY...
Isolated severe hail will be possible late night Friday from
northeast Texas and southeast Oklahoma through central Arkansas and
southwest Missouri.

...Synopsis...
Guidance has clearly trended over the past 36 hours to multiple
distinct shortwave impulses ejecting within the broad upper trough
over the western and central states. The lead impulse in the Four
Corners area at 12Z Friday will amplify across the central Great
Plains towards the Mid-MS Valley. Meanwhile, a secondary impulse and
attendant speed max will hold back within the basal portion of the
broad trough over the Four Corners. The net result will be more
prominent surface cyclogenesis occurring ahead of the lead wave,
mainly on Friday night across the Lower MO Valley towards southern
Lake MI. A surface cold front will sweep more rapidly east in
vicinity of the cyclone track, and slow its southeast push across
the southeast OK/Ark-La-Tex area late in the period.

...Northeast TX to AR/Southern MO...
The aforementioned synoptic trends suggest that forcing for ascent
appears to be limited across the modifying warm sector from east TX
towards the Ozarks on Friday night. Timing of the wave ejections
indicate near-neutral mid-level height change is anticipated
overnight in this region. With substantial modification necessary of
the continental polar air mass that is across the northwest Gulf
coast, more than meager surface-based instability will likely
struggle to advect north to/beyond the Ozarks. Within a
southwesterly low to mid-level flow regime, moderate MLCIN and low
RH above the capping inversion suggest that warm-sector thunderstorm
initiation ahead of the cold front is unlikely through 12Z Saturday.
Low-level warm theta-e advection could still be adequate for
isolated slightly elevated thunderstorms centered on the southeast
OK/Ark-La-Tex region deeper into AR overnight, with a primary threat
of localized severe hail.
