    Areas affected...eastern Colorado into northeastern New Mexico and
    the Oklahoma Panhandle

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely=20

    Valid 111844Z - 111945Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

    SUMMARY...Potential for large hail and a tornado with thunderstorm
    development this afternoon. Watch likely needed by around 20z.

    DISCUSSION...Upslope flow across the high terrain in eastern New
    Mexico and Colorado will be the focus of thunderstorm development
    through the afternoon. Westerly flow will bring storms off the high
    terrain into the plains through the late afternoon and evening.
    Daytime heating should result in modest MLCAPE around 1000-1500 J/kg
    amid favorable deep layer shear around 40-45 kts. Hodograph
    structures are largely linear and elongated, with strong deep layer
    flow and steep lapse rates. This environment will support high-based
    supercell with the potential for large hail (with instances near 2
    inches) and damaging winds. Weak low-level shear will limit tornado
    potential but any discrete supercells that become established could
    pose risk of a tornado as they track eastward into the better air
    mass across far eastern Colorado/Oklahoma Panhandle. A watch will
    likely be needed by around 20z.
