Very large to giant hail (2-4+ inches), swaths of severe/damaging winds, and a few tornadoes are all possible. 20Z Update The previous forecast remains on track, and only minor adjustments were made with this update. Most noteworthy, the CIG2 (intensity level 2/2) hail area was expanded northward into south-central OK, where robust splitting supercells are evolving in an environment characterized by 2500-3000 J/kg MLCAPE and around 50 kt of effective shear. These storms will continue to pose a risk of very large hail through the afternoon. In north TX, a corridor of relatively higher tornado potential is evident along a remnant outflow boundary -- where low-level shear is locally enhanced.
