Areas affected...eastern portions of the Texas South Plains

Concerning...Tornado Watch 355...

Valid 220219Z - 220415Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 355 continues.

SUMMARY...Risk for large hail and damaging wind gusts, and possibly
a tornado, will likely continue for the next couple of hours.

DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows a cluster of severe storms
moving southward across the eastern half of the South Plains region
of Texas -- within central portions of Tornado Watch 355. The lead
supercell is in the process of merging with what was a second cell,
and while a bit disorganized at present, may reorganize into one
large, rotating storm.

This cluster of storms is moving within the axis of greatest
instability (4500 J/kg mixed-layer CAPE), suggesting potential for
storms to shift south-southeastward out of the bounds of WW 355 in
the next hour and a half or so. With that said, CAMs continue to
suggest diurnal weakening will commence over the next couple of
hours, so it remains uncertain how much risk will extend
south/southeast of the existing watch. Still, we will continue to
monitor convective evolution, and potential that a new, small watch
may be required across areas south of WW 355 and north of San
Angelo.
