A line of thunderstorms is moving into the northwestern panhandles area. A gust to 84 mph was recorded within the past hour at Clayton, NM and a gust to 60 mph near Kenton, OK was recorded just recently as these storms moved into our area. These storms will be intersecting a boundary just east of Stratford in the next 1-2 hours and we expect in increase in coverage at that time with these storms.

Thunderstorms are developing in New Mexico and beginning to move east. Another action area is in the northeast Texas Panhandle where there are signs of storms beginning to develop. Through 6 pm the stronger storms will have the potential for hail up to quarter size (1") and the strongest winds could gust to 75 mph. We are expecting additional development over the next few hours as these storms begin to affect portions of our area.
