This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for the Texas and Oklahoma
Panhandles.

.DAY ONE...Tonight.

A Red Flag Warning remains in effect across the Oklahoma
Panhandle as well as the western and north central Texas
Panhandle until 11 PM this evening for critical fire weather
conditions.

Isolated thunderstorms may develop later this afternoon and
evening across mainly the northeastern combined Panhandles. If
storms form, a few may become severe with large hail, damaging
winds, and perhaps a tornado or two the primary hazards.
Therefore, a Tornado Watch is in effect for Beaver, Lipscomb, and
Ochiltree Counties until 3 AM CDT.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday.

Sustained northwest winds around 35 mph with higher gusts may
develop on Tuesday across the Oklahoma Panhandle, and a Wind
Advisory may be needed for that area.

Elevated to critical fire weather conditions are possible Tuesday
across the Oklahoma Panhandle as well as northern and western
sections of the Texas Panhandle due to strong winds and low
relative humidity values.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not anticipated at this time.

Area fire managers and emergency officials should be alert for
elevated or critical fire weather conditions today and Tuesday.
