    Areas affected...western North TX southward toward the Rio Grande
    Valley

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 31...

    Valid 102324Z - 110130Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 31 continues.

    SUMMARY...The threat for damaging hail, wind, and a few tornadoes
    persist within the entire watch area.

    DISCUSSION...Scattered storms extend from western North TX all the
    way south toward the Del Rio vicinity, where a massive supercell is
    producing significant hail and a tornado. Another cell with a
    history of tornadoes east of Abilene is near the KDYX radar. In
    between these cells, a broken line of storms extends south along the
    length of the dryline.=20

    The air mass east of this region remain quite unstable for this time
    of year, with MLCAPE over 2000 J/kg and effective deep-layer shear
    over 50 kt. 0-1 SRH is not particularly strong, but in the 100-150
    m2/s2 range which will still support a tornado risk. Given the mixed
    storm modes, all hazards remain possible in the near term.
