National Weather Force has issued a Severe Thunderstorm Watch effective for parts of Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas, centering the Eastern Texas Panhandle now till Midnight Tonight.
An upper-level system out of the west will move into the region today. A dryline located around Amarillo, Texas will be the focus spot from north to south zipping a line of storm cells this evening. Dewpoints are up and the temperature is rising. Backing southeast winds will accompany the surface low to bring a tornado probability, mainly along the watch area and centering near and east of the Amarillo, Texas regions and those counties surrounding it. Storms will move predominately to the east with time.
National Weather Force Tornado Risk Analysis Model (TRAM) is pegging a notable tornado dynamic risk today in the focus areas spoken of, which means that tornadoes cannot be ruled out within the lone supercell clusters, which should last even into the night with a valid tornado threat so have your radios handy as nighttime tornadoes cannot be seen and are considered the most dangerous.
Large hail and damaging winds will also accompany the watch area.
