Areas affected...Southeast Colorado into northern Texas
Panhandle..Oklahoma Panhandle...far southwest Kansas

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

Valid 262229Z - 270000Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

SUMMARY...Though coverage may remain isolated, the strongest storms
will be capable of large hail and severe winds. Trends will be
monitored for a possible watch late this afternoon.

DISCUSSION...Moist upslope flow into the Raton Mesa and nearby
vicinity has led to a cluster storms within parts of the
Texas/Oklahoma Panhandle as well as more isolated development in
southeastern Colorado. Modest westerly mid-level winds within the
upper-level ridge atop easterly/southeasterly surface winds have
promoted modest effective shear of around 30-35 kts. Given weak
forcing, storm organization my remain relatively brief/sporadic and
coverage of severe storms may remain isolated. The strongest storms
will be capable of large hail and severe winds. It is possible that
a more organized wind threat could materialize if storms can
cluster. A northward moving boundary in southeast Colorado could
provide a focus for this. A watch is possible, but with coverage
being uncertain, convective trends will continue to be monitored
late this afternoon.
