TEXAS/OKLAHOMA PANHANDLES THUNDERSTORM OUTLOOK
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AMARILLO TX
100 PM CDT SAT JUN 13 1992

THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT ACROSS ALL OF THE OKLAHOMA AND TEXAS PANHANDLES.

THE ATMOSPHERE OVER THE PANHANDLES REMAINS MOIST AND IS BECOMING
INCREASINGLY UNSTABLE THIS AFTERNOON DUE TO DAYTIME HEATING. A DRYLINE
WAS BEGINNING TO SET UP IN EASTERN NEW MEXICO EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. THIS
FEATURE IS EXPECTED TO BE THE FOCUS FOR THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT. THE
STORMS SHOULD THEN MOVE SOUTHEAST INTO THE PANHANDLES LATE THIS AFTERNOON
...CONTINUING INTO THE NIGHTTIME HOURS.

SOME OF THE THUNDERSTORMS WHICH DEVELOP WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME
SEVERE.  THE PRIMARY THREAT WILL BE LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS.
HOWEVER...ISOLATED TORNADOES WILL BE POSSIBLE. IN ADDITION...BECAUSE THE
GROUND REMAINS SATURATED...HEAVY RAINS ASSOCIATED WITH THE STRONGER
STORMS WILL PRODUCE LOCAL FLOODING OR FLASH FLOODING.

SPOTTER GROUPS AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL IN THE OKLAHOMA AND
TEXAS PANHANDLES SHOULD REMAIN ALERT AND BE READY FOR ACTIVATION LATER
THIS AFTERNOON OR EVENING IF NECESSA!RY.
