Valid 220219Z - 220415Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 355 continues. SUMMARY...Risk for large hail and damaging wind gusts, and possibly a tornado, will likely continue for the next couple of hours. DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows a cluster of severe storms moving southward across the eastern half of the South Plains region of Texas -- within central portions of Tornado Watch 355. The lead supercell is in the process of merging with what was a second cell, and while a bit disorganized at present, may reorganize into one large, rotating storm. This cluster of storms is moving within the axis of greatest instability (4500 J/kg mixed-layer CAPE), suggesting potential for storms to shift south-southeastward out of the bounds of WW 355 in the next hour and a half or so. With that said, CAMs continue to suggest diurnal weakening will commence over the next couple of hours, so it remains uncertain how much risk will extend south/southeast of the existing watch. Still, we will continue to monitor convective evolution, and potential that a new, small watch may be required across areas south of WW 355 and north of San Angelo. ...Goss.. 06/22/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!9-cdAKtIBGAD452vXF3l-KiVytBTLY7xlRCbvuLyM8iZoWXGU4ekkVRagCzxungsPOf3oCdSp= 8YOqzH21BcERFRSGsU$ for graphic product...
