    Areas affected...the Texas Panhandle into southwest Texas

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 272021Z - 272245Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms capable of isolated severe wind gusts of
    60-70+ mph appear possible late this afternoon into early evening.
    The limited areal coverage of the threat precludes a watch issuance.

    DISCUSSION...Latest radar and satellite data indicate deepening
    cumulus within localized confluent zones over the northern and
    southern TX Panhandle, as well as along the Davis Mountains in
    southwest TX. Additional mid/high-level cloudiness appears to be
    associated with a weak disturbance moving through the region, which
    may aid in isolated to widely scattered storm development amidst an
    otherwise weakly confluent surface regime. Modification of the 18Z
    MAF sounding for current surface conditions yields around 1500 J/kg
    of SBCAPE with a 3-4 km deep, dry sub-cloud layer. Vertical shear is
    weak, which should limit the potential for storm organization and
    duration. Nonetheless, the thermodynamic environment appears
    supportive of isolated severe wind gusts of 60-70+ mph.
