Areas affected...West Texas

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 170...

Valid 012057Z - 012230Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 170
continues.

SUMMARY...A severe threat of very large hail exceeding 2 inches in
diameter and damaging wind gusts over 70 mph continues across most
of west Texas this afternoon. Additional supercells may continue to
develop along the dryline through the early evening hours.

DISCUSSION...Latest KMAF reflectivity shows a few supercells over
the higher terrain of west Texas near Fort Stockton and the Davis
Mountains. The regenerative supercell near Fort Stockton recently
deviated southward and may be in the process of tornadogenensis,
although low level shear remains relatively modest. Environmental
parameters across the region will continue to support organized
updrafts, especially near and south of Fort Stockton over the next
1-2 hours. Hail and damaging winds are likely, and the severe risk
continues across much of WW170.
