00:00We've got a mesocyclone organizing to the southwest of Davidson, Oklahoma right now.
00:05You can start to see the stack plates beginning to form, and the low-level jet is starting to ramp
00:09up
00:09as we are rapidly approaching the magic hour.
00:13The southern end of this line had to absorb a couple of cells, and now it's really organizing,
00:17and we have these strong southeasterly winds feeding into it.
00:20You can see the anemometer on top of the Dominator.
00:23Those are easterlies, easterly inflow, warm inflow at our back.
00:27Dew points are up into the middle 60s right now, so right on schedule as the short-range models were
00:33showing.
00:33The southern edge of this convective line is going nuts, and we have an organizing supercell storm right there.
00:39A lot of green coloration as well above with this mesocyclone.
00:43That means that it has a lot of ice suspended in the updraft, and that is producing a lot of
00:48hail already.
00:49Once you start to get that rotating updraft or the mesocyclone, it enhances the updraft,
00:53and that's when you get the very large hail.
00:55But after this crosses the Red River, I think that this is going to develop tornado potential this evening
01:00with the increasing low-level wind shear just ahead of this convective line.
