    Areas affected...much of central OK into northern TX

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 65...

    Valid 020120Z - 020245Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 65 continues.

    SUMMARY...The severe threat continues across Tornado Watch 65. All
    severe hazards remain a concern, including with new storms
    developing over southwestern into central OK. Temporal extensions of
    the ongoing watch may be needed for central into northeast OK.

    DISCUSSION...New convective development is underway across
    southwestern into central OK in the wake of earlier storms. These
    newer storms are forming immediately ahead of the cold front and are progressing toward a modestly buoyant airmass (characterized by
    1000-2000 J/kg MLCAPE). The 00Z observed sounding from OUN depicted
    a cooling boundary layer, but with steep lapse rates aloft. The
    associated observed hodograph showed sizeable low-level curvature
    and mid-level elongation, which would support possible supercell
    development accompanied by a threat for damaging gusts, large hail,
    and perhaps a couple of tornadoes.=20

    As such, portions of Tornado Watch 65 over central into northeast OK
    will need to be extended in time to address the severe threat with
    storms developing in southwestern OK. Farther southeast, a new WW
    issuance will be needed to address the severe threat later this
    evening.
