    Panhandles...and far southeastern CO

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 359...

    Valid 230102Z - 230200Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 359
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Strong storms across northeastern NM may persist into
    western TX/OK Panhandles this evening with a risk for damaging winds
    and large hail. A downstream weather watch may be needed.

    DISCUSSION...As of 0050 UTC, regional radar analysis showed several
    severe storms, including supercells, ongoing across northeastern NM.
    Over the last several hours, these storms have produced several
    reports of severe hail. Storm coverage has gradually increased
    within broad upslope flow early this evening. The environment
    downstream of the ongoing storms remains moderately unstable with
    45-55 kt of effective shear from the 00z AMA RAOB. Some lingering
    inhibition was noted in the wake of modified outflow air from
    earlier convection. As storms track eastward this evening, they may
    persist for a few more hours into portions of the western OK/TX
    Panhandles with a risk for large hail. Some upscale growth may also
    support damaging gusts. However, it remains unclear how much and how
    long any organized severe risk may persist given the lingering
    inhibition and the loss of diurnal heating. Hi-res guidance remains
    split with some solutions supporting a continued severe risk, but
    most favoring a gradual downtrend in intensity. While uncertain,
    moderate buoyancy/shear may be sufficient for continued storm
    maintenance and severe risk for a few hours this evening. Convective
    trends will be monitored for a possible weather watch downstream.
