    Areas affected...Southeast CO...Eastern NM...Western TX/OK

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 132040Z - 132245Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Several outflow-dominant thunderstorm clusters may develop
    across the region this afternoon/evening. Damaging gusts are the
    primary risk with this activity.

    DISCUSSION...Cumulus continues to build across the high terrain from
    southern CO through central NM, with a few instances of lightning
    observed as well. Despite large-scale ridging, thunderstorm coverage
    is expected to gradually increase amid persistent southwesterly flow
    aloft and related weak ascent. The airmass downstream across the
    southern High Plains is deeply mixed, with LCLs from 10 to 12 kft,
    and only weakly buoyant. As such, the expectation is for storms to
    quickly become outflow-dominant when the move off the terrain over
    the next few hours. Outflow interactions could lead to one or more forward-propagating clusters, any of which could produce strong to
    severe wind gusts. Severe coverage will likely remain isolated, and
    the need for a watch is uncertain. Overall convective trends will be
    monitored closely.

    Farther east across western portions of the TX South Plains, an area
    of deepening cumulus has been noted. Convective inhibition has
    largely eroded in this area, and there is some chance an isolated
    storm develops. However, given the significant dry air present,
    there is a low-probability for sustained deep convection in the
    near-term.
