    Areas affected...north-central Texas.

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 686...

    Valid 192220Z - 192345Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 686
    continues.

    SUMMARY...A supercell across north-central Texas could pose a large
    hail threat this evening.

    DISCUSSION...A supercell formed on the western periphery of mid-day
    elevated convection which moved east across north-central Texas.
    Given only weak CINH near this storm and its radar depiction over
    the last hour, this storm has likely rooted and is surface based in
    a region with around 1000 J/kg MLCAPE. 40+ knots of mid-level
    northwesterly flow (per FWD VWP) has yielded near 50 knots of
    effective shear. This environment will support supercells capable of
    large hail (potentially 2+ inches). If this storm continues to turn
    right, which it has started to do over the last 15 to 30 minutes,
    portions of at least the northern DFW metro area may be impacted by
    large to very large hail this evening.=20

    If this storm continues to maintain its current intensity or
    strengthen, an expansion of watch 686 may be needed.
