SUMMARY...THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT WILL INCREASE THIS

DISCUSSION...A STORM HAS DEVELOPED IN UNION COUNTY, NEW MEXICO THIS
AFTERNOON WHERE 50S DEWPOINTS HAVE BACKED UP INTO THE HIGHER
TERRAIN. VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY ALSO SUGGESTS ADDITIONAL
DEVELOPMENT MAY OCCUR NORTH OF THIS STORM NEAR THE RATON MESA. SPC
MESOANALYSIS SHOWS AROUND 35 TO 40 KNOTS OF EFFECTIVE SHEAR ACROSS
THE AREA. THE PUX VWP IS SAMPLING AROUND 40 TO 45 KNOTS AT 4-5KM
WHICH WOULD SUPPORT THE 35 TO 40 KNOT SHEAR VALUES FARTHER
SOUTHEAST. THIS SHEAR, COMBINED WITH WEAK TO MODERATE INSTABILITY
WILL SUPPORT THE POTENTIAL FOR SUPERCELL STRUCTURES AND SOME HAIL
THREAT. THROUGH TIME, EXPECT STORMS TO GROW UPSCALE AS THEY MOVE
EAST INTO A MORE UNSTABLE AIRMASS WITH AN INCREASING SEVERE WIND
THREAT INTO THE EVENING.
