capping strengthens eastward from the dryline, isolated severe gusts
also may occur.

The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 60
statute miles east and west of a line from 40 miles southwest of San
Angelo TX to 55 miles north northeast of San Angelo TX. For a
complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline
update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU3).
