   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 351...

   Valid 300702Z - 300830Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 351
   continues.

   SUMMARY...The severe threat appears to be diminishing within WW 351,
   while an isolated severe hail/wind threat should persist farther
   east in a portion of northwest Texas.

   DISCUSSION...The longer-lived supercell that produced significant
   severe in east-central NM, weakened substantially as it shifted eat
   into the TX South Plains. This appears to be in response to
   impinging on greater MLCIN, despite larger buoyancy to its
   southeast. Meanwhile, a cluster flare-up has occurred downstream
   towards the southeast TX Panhandle. This cluster has shown some
   organization, although the cluster mode appears to be limiting hail
   magnitudes. Isolated severe hail will probably remain most prominent
   within the southwest portion of this cluster development back to the
   remnant supercell. Localized severe wind gusts may become the
   overarching threat as the cluster gradually shifts east. How long
   this threat will last is uncertain, but it's plausible it will
   continue through the rest of pre-dawn.
