    Areas affected...West and Northwest Texas...Western Oklahoma

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

    Valid 140411Z - 140645Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated severe wind gusts and hail will be possible over
    the next few hours across parts of west and northwest Texas into
    western Oklahoma.

    DISCUSSION...The latest mosaic radar imagery shows a
    southwest-to-northeast corridor of scattered thunderstorm
    development from west Texas into western Oklahoma. This activity is
    being supported by warm advection and by large-scale ascent within southwesterly mid-level flow. The storms are located near an axis of
    weak instability, where the RAP has SBCAPE generally less than 500
    J/kg. The RAP is also analyzing a 70 to 80 knot mid-level jet from
    southeast New Mexico into southwest Oklahoma. This feature is
    creating strong deep-layer shear over most of the southern High
    Plains, which will continue to be favorable for a marginal severe
    threat late this evening into the early overnight period. Isolated
    severe wind gusts and hail will be the primary threats.
