Areas affected...Parts of the TX Panhandle into
western/central/northeast OK

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 171...

Valid 250451Z - 250615Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 171
continues.

SUMMARY...Some severe threat will persist into the overnight hours.

DISCUSSION...Three long-lived supercells are ongoing late tonight
across the northeast TX Panhandle, while convection in OK has
evolved into more of a quasi-linear mode, though a couple of
embedded supercells persist across western OK. While MLCINH is
increasing region-wide, the best relative storm environment remains
across the TX Panhandle into extreme western OK, where MLCAPE in
excess of 1500 J/kg and favorable deep-layer shear will continue to
support supercell potential into the overnight hours. While ongoing
storms will struggle to remain surface-based with time, a
substantial nocturnal strengthening of the low-level jet (as noted
on the KAMA VWP) may support some tornado potential with ongoing
supercells in the short term. Otherwise, large hail and localized
severe gusts will remain a threat for as long as vigorous convection
persists overnight.=20

Farther northeast, a small bowing segment has evolved across
north-central OK, which is moving eastward along a weak surface
boundary. The longevity of this bowing segment may be limited by
diminishing downstream instability and increasing MLCINH, but a
severe-wind threat could reach portions of northeast OK with time
overnight.
