Areas affected...south-central Oklahoma into northeastern Texas

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 298...

Valid 240544Z - 240715Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 298
continues.

SUMMARY...Local risk for very large hail and/or strong/damaging
winds continues.

DISCUSSION...A couple of clusters of storms -- one over
south-central Oklahoma and a separate one over southeastern Oklahoma
and into northeastern Texas -- continue at this hour.  Storms have
maintained intensity, with a supercell now near the Fannin/Hunt
County Line in Texas having turned strongly to the right over the
past hour or so.  This storm is likely producing very large hail --
potentially in excess of 2" in diameter -- at this time, and will
near the southern bounds of the WW in the next hour or so.  Local
extension of the watch in area, south/southeast of this storm, may
be needed.

Elsewhere, the storm cluster over southeastern Oklahoma has also
maintained intensity, with a 73 MPH gust recently measured in
Stephens County OK.  With an amply moist/unstable airmass downstream
from this convection, expect the storms -- and attendant severe
potential -- to continue over the next couple of hours.
