    Areas affected...eastern New Mexico into the Texas Panhandle/South
    Plains

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

    Valid 071944Z - 072145Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorm activity has developed along the high terrain
    in New Mexico as well as in the vicinity of an MCV located across
    the Texas Plains this afternoon. A few stronger storms may produce
    gusty winds and hail this afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...Across eastern New Mexico, weak flow with northern
    extent has yielded shear values generally under 20 kts. Steep
    mid-level lapse rates around 8-9 C/km and surface heating is likely
    to allow a modest increase in MLCAPE by the late afternoon will
    result in potential for multi-cell clusters that may briefly produce
    severe hail. Forecast soundings have a classic "inverted V", with
    deeply mixed boundary layer conditions and with dew point spreads
    around 40 F. This will support a risk of instances of severe wind as
    well.=20

    Across the Texas Panhandle into the South Plains, a remnant MCV will
    provide increased flow and shear for thunderstorm organization
    through the afternoon. Surface objective analysis shows MLCAPE
    around 500-1000 J/kg nudging northward into the Texas Panhandle
    where effective shear is around 20 kts. A few instances of severe
    hail (some exceeding 1 inch) and gusty winds will be possible.

    Given the small spatial and temporal nature of these threats, a
    watch is unlikely to be considered for either region.
