Valid 222233Z - 230000Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 30 continues. SUMMARY...Strong/severe thunderstorms will spread across portions of the TX Panhandle this evening. Large hail and damaging winds remain the primary threats. DISCUSSION...Leading edge of large-scale forcing for ascent is spreading across northeast NM into the TX Panhandle. In response to this forcing, convection has gradually increased in areal extent and intensity from the northern TX Panhandle, southwest into Deaf Smith county. This activity appears to be evolving into a small MCS that should propagate east across the TX Panhandle as LLJ increases then veers toward western OK. While isolated supercells have been the predominate mode early, forcing should encourage storm mergers that will lead to a squall line over the next few hours. Wind/hail are the primary threats as this complex matures and shifts east. ..Darrow.. 03/22/2019 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...LUB...AMA...ABQ...
