URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 313
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
100 AM CDT Sun May 26 2024
The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
* Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of
West-central Texas
* Effective this Sunday morning from 100 AM until 700 AM CDT.
* Primary threats include...
Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 3
inches in diameter possible
Isolated damaging wind gusts to 60 mph possible
SUMMARY...Thunderstorms have developed along a dryline over the
eastern Permian Basin area, with additional towers evident to the
south in satellite imagery. The environment supports significant
(2+ inch) damaging hail with any storms that can persist, as
convection shifts eastward toward the Concho Valley region. Though
capping strengthens eastward from the dryline, isolated severe gusts
also may occur.
The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 60
statute miles east and west of a line from 40 miles southwest of San
Angelo TX to 55 miles north northeast of San Angelo TX. For a
complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline
update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU3).
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area.
Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening
weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible
warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce
tornadoes.
