CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY LATE TONIGHT INTO EARLY SATURDAY MORNING ACROSS
THE TEXAS PANHANDLE IS EXPECTED TO MOSTLY REMAIN IN THE PANHANDLE
THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS. A COMPLEX OF THUNDERSTORMS MAY
DRIFT TO THE SOUTH INTO THE SOUTHEASTERN TEXAS PANHANDLE FOLLOWING
LOW LEVEL FLOW FROM THE SOUTHEAST.
HIGHER CHANCES OF CONVECTION WILL EMERGE SATURDAY EVENING IN
ASSOCIATION WITH A COLD FRONT MOVING SOUTHWARD THROUGH THE TEXAS
PANHANDLE. A SHORT WAVE TROUGH MOVING FROM NORTHERN NEW MEXICO INTO
THE RATON MESA ON SATURDAY AFTERNOON LOOKS TO ROUND THE SPRAWLING
UPPER LEVEL RIDGE COVERING THE SOUTHERN US. MOIST UPSLOPE FLOW IN
EASTERN NEW MEXICO WILL LIKELY LEAD TO CONVECTION ON THE HIGHER
TERRAIN AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT DURING THE AFTERNOON.
MORE WIDESPREAD CONVECTION IS EXPECTED FROM NORTHEASTERN NEW MEXICO
INTO THE WESTERN TEXAS PANHANDLE AS THE COLD FRONT MOVES SOUTHWARD.
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY/COLD POOL INTERACTIONS MAY ALLOW STORMS TO GROW
MORE UPSCALE INTO THE SOUTHERN TEXAS PANHANDLE AND NORTHERN SOUTH
PLAINS DURING THE EVENING HOURS. CONVECTION MAY HAVE A DIFFICULT
TIME MAKING IT FARTHER SOUTH OUT OF THE PANHANDLES AS INSTABILITY
WILL WANE QUITE A BIT DURING THE EVENING. NONETHELESS, ANY STORMS
THAT DO MAKE IT INTO THE FA WILL PRIMARILY BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING
STRONG TO SEVERE WIND GUSTS WITH A LESSER THREAT FOR LARGE HAIL.
