    Areas affected...Southern Plains

    Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely=20

    Valid 280030Z - 280130Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent

    SUMMARY...Tornado watch will be issued soon across the southern
    Plains from northwest TX across much of OK.

    DISCUSSION...Leading edge of large-scale ascent is spreading across
    the southern high Plains early this evening. Agitated boundary-layer
    cu field is deepening along the dryline over TX, indicative of the
    approaching trough. Convection is expected to increase in areal
    coverage into the southwest flank of ongoing southwest-northeast
    MCS, then gradually shift east. 00z sounding from OUN exhibited very
    strong shear (400m2/s2 0-3km SRH) with MLCAPE around 2300 J/kg,
    though slightly capped. Supercells and thunderstorm clusters are
    expected to continue, and increase in areal coverage later this
    evening as the trough shifts east. New tornado watch is warranted.
