    Mesoscale Discussion 0496
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    1039 PM CDT Sat Apr 19 2025

    Areas affected...Northeast/Eastern Oklahoma and Northwest Arkansas

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

    Valid 200339Z - 200445Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

    SUMMARY...Tornado Watch will likely be issued soon across portions
    of northeast and eastern Oklahoma into northwest Arkansas.

    DISCUSSION...Intense low-level warm advection has developed across
    eastern OK into northwest AR, per latest VAD profiles from INX/SRX.
    0-3km SRH is impressive across this region as the LLJ is
    strengthening into this area. Over the last few hours, an elongated
    MCS has matured across ww159, and several long-lived supercells,
    with tornadoes at times, are embedded along a corridor from Parker
    County TX to Hughes County OK. Boundary-layer air mass is gradually
    recovering across this region with lower 60s surface dew points
    north of I40 into northwest AR. Severe threat is expected to
    increase across this area over the next several hours as the
    upstream MCS spreads into this region, but isolated supercells are
    also likely within the warm-advection zone. New Tornado Watch is
    warranted across this area.
