    Areas affected...far eastern New Mexico into southwestern Texas

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 192359Z - 200200Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...A few instances of strong to severe wind and marginally
    severe hail will be possible this evening.

    DISCUSSION...Thunderstorm activity continues near the surface trough
    across western Texas into eastern New Mexico. While the air mass in
    this area remains moderately unstable amid steep lapse rate
    profiles, deep layer shear is fairly weak (around 20-30 kts). This
    is also mostly confined to the the area immediately near the surface
    trough. This will likely lead to outflow dominant storms with
    potential for a few instances of strong to severe wind and perhaps
    some marginally severe hail. As such, the threat is expected to
    remain fairly localized and should decrease with loss of daytime
    heating. This will likely preclude the need for watch issuance.
