    Areas affected...southwestern Kansas...the Oklahoma and northern
    Texas Panhandle vicinity

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 636...

    Valid 122219Z - 122315Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 636
    continues.

    SUMMARY...An evolving cluster of thunderstorms may continue to
    slowly organize and become accompanied by increasing potential to
    produce strong to severe wind gusts across and northeast of the
    Liberal KS vicinity through 7-9 PM CDT.

    DISCUSSION...Strongest convection has gradually consolidated near
    the western Oklahoma Panhandle vicinity, perhaps aided by forcing
    for ascent within a zone of enhanced lower/mid-tropospheric warm
    advection, downstream of a weak upper impulse turning northeastward
    across the southern Rockies. Modest easterly to northeasterly near
    surface inflow of moist air characterized by mixed-layer CAPE on the
    order of 2000+ J/kg may maintain vigorous convective development
    during the next few hours, and it appears possible that an MCV may
    gradually form as activity propagates northeastward. As it does,
    strengthening rear inflow to its south through southeast may
    gradually be accompanied by increasing potential for strong to
    severe surface gusts by early evening.
