    Areas affected...Portions of far southwestern KS into the OK/TX
    Panhandles

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 450...

    Valid 060640Z - 060815Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 450
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The threat for large hail and severe wind gusts will
    likely continue this morning as thunderstorms move southeastward.

    DISCUSSION...An intense supercell moving from Baca County in
    southeastern CO into Cimarron County OK recently produced a measured
    gust to 71 kt (82 mph) at KSPD. Downstream, convection along the
    OK/KS line is beginning to show some signs of clustering/upscale
    growth as it begins to overlap with the nose of a 30-35 kt
    south-southeasterly low-level jet present over the TX Panhandle. High-resolution guidance, including the latest run of the HRRR,
    continue to struggle with convective placement and evolution across
    this region over the next few hours. Current expectation is that
    thunderstorms will probably grow upscale into one or more small
    bowing clusters as they move southeastward across far southwestern
    KS, the OK Panhandle, and the northern TX Panhandle. Severe/damaging
    winds would likely remain the primary threat with this mainly linear convection, although some large hail could occur with any supercell
    that can remain at least semi-discrete. A fairly favorable
    thermodynamic and kinematic environment downstream suggests that
    this severe wind/hail will likely persist for at least a few more
    hours this morning across parts of the OK/TX Panhandles.
