    Areas affected...OK Panhandle...northern TX Panhandle

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

    Valid 282352Z - 290115Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...A squall line capable of isolated severe gusts (60-75 mph)
    is becoming more likely during the evening. Large hail is possible
    with the discrete supercells ahead of the line.

    DISCUSSION...Radar mosaic shows a developing squall line from far
    northeast NM east-northeastward into far southwest KS. Visible
    satellite imagery shows a residual outflow boundary arcing from the
    TX Low Rolling Plains northwestward to the western part of the TX
    Panhandle and extending northward to the CO/KS/OK border.=20=20

    Surface observations indicate relatively moist conditions with lower
    60s deg F dewpoints and temperatures in the mid 70s. RAP forecast
    soundings for current surface conditions indicate a very unstable
    airmass is in place across the TX Panhandle with MLCAPE around 2500
    J/kg. Although deep-layer shear is marginal for supercells, it is
    more than adequate for organized storm structures. The steep
    700-500 mb lapse rates in excess of 8 deg C/km will aid in longevity
    of the storm cluster despite an only modest LLJ increase this
    evening. A large hail threat will accompany any discrete updrafts
    before additional storm congealing occurs and severe gusts become
    the main threat.
