    Areas affected...portions of extreme north Texas into southern
    Oklahoma

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 149...

    Valid 200201Z - 200330Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 149 continues.

    SUMMARY...The tornado threat should continue with ongoing storms
    along the Red River into southern OK over the next few hours.

    DISCUSSION...Several strong to severe thunderstorms are growing
    upscale into an MCS along the Red River, and these storms are poised
    to advance east-northeast across southern OK over the next few
    hours. An embedded, sustained supercell has recently produced a
    tornado in Love County, OK, and tornado potential is expected to
    continue with this storm, even if it morphs into a bowing/LEWP
    structure. Regional VADs depict large, curved hodographs across
    central TX/OK, and adequate surface based buoyancy remains in place. Furthermore, the 01Z Warn-on-Forecast run depicts continued swaths
    of stronger 0-2 km updraft helicity, indicative of longer-term
    low-level rotation potential with the ongoing storms. Given the
    strong low-level shear in place, a strong tornado remains possible.
