NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE AMARILLO TX
1235 PM CST SAT MAR 25 1995

THERE IS A TORNADO WATCH IN EFFECT FOR THE EASTERN MOST COUNTIES
OF THE TEXAS AND OKLAHOMA PANHANDLE UNTIL 600 PM CST.  AN
UNSTABLE AIRMASS...CONSIDERABLE ATMOSPHERIC MOISTURE...AND A
DEVELOPING SURFACE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MAKE CONDITIONS FAVORABLE
FOR THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT.  THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM OR A TORNADO IS MORE LIKELY EAST OF THE PANHANDLES
IN OKLAHOMA.

THERE IS A CHANCE OF GENERAL THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING OVER THE
EASTERN HALF OF THE TEXAS AND OKLAHOMA PANHANDLES THIS
AFTERNOON.

A DRYLINE IS MOVING EASTWARD THROUGH THE CENTRAL PORTION OF THE
PANHANDLES.  FOLLOWING THE DRY LINE IS A WEAK COOL FRONT.  AHEAD
OF THE DRY LINE IS MOIST UNSTABLE AIR WHICH COUPLED WITH
AFTERNOON HEATING OR INTERACTION WITH THE DRY LINE HAS THE
POTENTIAL TO GENERATE THUNDERSTORMS.  A FEW THUNDERSTORM
CELLS...ESPECIALLY THOSE ASSOCIATED WITH THE DRYLINE ITSELF WILL
HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME SEVERE.
