778 ACUS11 KWNS 290229 SWOMCD SPC MCD 290228 TXZ000-290430- Mesoscale Discussion 0613 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0928 PM CDT Tue Apr 28 2026 Areas affected...North Central TX Concerning...Tornado Watch 178... Valid 290228Z - 290430Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 178 continues. SUMMARY...Supercells capable of very large hail will continue to track southeastward. DISCUSSION...Two intense supercells continue to affect parts of north-central TX, over Hill/Bosque/Limestone counties. This cluster of storms has a long history of significant hail damage during the past few hours. CAPE values remain very high, with steep lapse rates and strong deep layer shear indicated on the 00z FWD sounding. However, cap strength is increasing as the boundary layer slowly cools. This is likely to lead to some weakening over the next couple of hours. Nevertheless, some severe risk will likely persist until at least midnight. ..Hart.. 04/29/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...HGX...FWD...
