Areas affected...much of southeast Colorado into northeast New
Mexico and the far western OK/TX Panhandles
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely=20
Valid 052035Z - 052230Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent
SUMMARY...At least isolated supercells capable of very large hail,
damaging gusts and a brief tornado threat are expected to form in
the next few hours.
DISCUSSION...A very moist yet cool air mass currently exists across
much of the central Plains, with easterly surface winds over the
High Plains of CO/NM. Visible satellite imagery shows breaks in the
cloud fields, with temperatures gradually rising. Of note are the
upper 70s F temperatures now into the Raton/Trinidad area, which
when combined with mid 50s dewpoints results in very strong
instability. Farther north toward Colorado Springs, stratus has
locked in cool temperatures for much of the day, but recent
observations indicate mixing is underway with winds out of the south
around 15 mph.
The moist upslope flow combined with heating will lead to at least
isolated supercells forming off the high terrain, with initial hail
threat. Continued heating as well as persistent moist easterly flow
will support the hail/wind/tor threat extending eastward perhaps
toward the Panhandles tonight.
