    Areas affected...eastern Oklahoma...northern Arkansas...and southern-east-central Missouri

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 042053Z - 042230Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Scattered strong thunderstorms are possible this afternoon
    and evening from eastern Oklahoma across northern Arkansas and into
    Misosuri.

    DISCUSSION...Scattered thunderstorms have developed along and ahead
    of a cold front from eastern Oklahoma into northwest Arkansas and
    into Missouri. The airmass ahead of this cold front is moderately
    unstable with MLCAPE around 1500 to 2000 J/kg. Effective shear is
    relatively weak (<30 knots per SPC mesoanalysis), but VWPs closer to
    the cold front (INX and SGF) are sampling greater 0-6 km shear
    between 25 and 30 knots. This, in addition to low-level convergence,
    will support more robust updrafts near the cold front. A few strong
    to isolated severe storms will be possible this afternoon. However,
    height rises and broad synoptic scale subsidence should preclude a=20
    more organized severe weather threat and the need for a watch.
