The Storm Prediction Center has upgraded to Slight Risk across parts of the central and western Texas panhandle this evening. Â Upper level energy, moving over New Mexico this afternoon and into the panhandle region this evening, is expected to spawn at least a few severe thunderstorms, mainly between 6 and 10pm this evening across eastern New Mexico and into the western and central panhandle. Â Large hail and damaging winds will be the primary threats. Â Storms are expected to develop somewhat isolated at first, close to the TX/NM border, then quickly congeal into a mass and head east/southeast across the panhandle with potential for a mesoscale convective system (MCS) formation overnight across the southeastern panhandle, south rolling plains and possibly western north Texas. Â We’ll continue to keep an eye on things this evening and bring you the latest as things develop!
