Areas affected...eastern New Mexico into the Texas/Oklahoma
Panhandles

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 510...

Valid 120222Z - 120345Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 510
continues.

SUMMARY...Damaging wind threat is increasing within WW510.

DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms in eastern New Mexico have shown better
organization along outflow over the last 20-30 minutes. In addition,
cloud top cooling is noted on infrared satellite indicating some
uptick in intensity. As this line advances into the Texas Panhandle,
the damaging wind risk may increase over the next couple of hours.
The downstream environment remains favorable unstable. The 00z RAOB
from AMA shows steep low level lapse rates and ample MLCAPE. While
diurnal heating has ended and MLCIN is increasing, this line segment
will likely be able to maintain intensity for the next couple of
hours as it tracks southeastward aided by modest south easterlies
around 20-25 kts noted from KAMA. In addition, new development has
occurred ahead of the main line of storms which may pose a risk for
severe hail. Local expansion of WW510 may be needed into the OK/TX
Panhandles.
