    Areas affected...Parts of eastern Oklahoma...Arkansas...and
    northwest Mississippi

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 181733Z - 182030Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...The area is being monitored for increasing severe
    potential this afternoon. Isolated strong to severe microbursts and
    perhaps marginally severe hail will be possible. Watch issuance is
    not expected at this time.

    DISCUSSION...Latest visible satellite imagery shows an increasingly
    agitated cumulus field extending from eastern Oklahoma into parts of
    Arkansas and northwest Mississippi -- where diurnal destabilization
    is occurring south of a quasi-stationary surface boundary draped
    across the Middle Mississippi Valley. As diurnal heating continues
    amid orographic circulations over the higher terrain in eastern
    Oklahoma and western Arkansas, isolated to widely scattered
    convection should develop during the afternoon hours. The modified
    12Z LZK sounding indicates steep midlevel lapse rates atop a
    moist/well-mixed boundary layer and minimal inhibition. While
    deep-layer flow/shear is weak across the area, isolated strong to
    severe downbursts and perhaps marginally severe hail will be
    possible with the stronger/deeper pulsating updrafts. Currently, the
    coverage and organization of strong to severe storms appears too
    limited for watch consideration, though trends will be monitored.

    Areas affected...northeast NM...into the western TX/OK
    Panhandles...and far southeastern CO

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 359...

    Valid 230102Z - 230200Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 359
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Strong storms across northeastern NM may persist into
    western TX/OK Panhandles this evening with a risk for damaging winds
    and large hail. A downstream weather watch may be needed.

    DISCUSSION...As of 0050 UTC, regional radar analysis showed several
    severe storms, including supercells, ongoing across northeastern NM.
    Over the last several hours, these storms have produced several
    reports of severe hail. Storm coverage has gradually increased
    within broad upslope flow early this evening. The environment
    downstream of the ongoing storms remains moderately unstable with
    45-55 kt of effective shear from the 00z AMA RAOB. Some lingering
    inhibition was noted in the wake of modified outflow air from
    earlier convection. As storms track eastward this evening, they may
    persist for a few more hours into portions of the western OK/TX
    Panhandles with a risk for large hail. Some upscale growth may also
    support damaging gusts. However, it remains unclear how much and how
    long any organized severe risk may persist given the lingering
    inhibition and the loss of diurnal heating. Hi-res guidance remains
    split with some solutions supporting a continued severe risk, but
    most favoring a gradual downtrend in intensity. While uncertain,
    moderate buoyancy/shear may be sufficient for continued storm
    maintenance and severe risk for a few hours this evening. Convective
    trends will be monitored for a possible weather watch downstream.
