   Areas affected...western north Texas

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 55...

   Valid 190708Z - 190815Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 55 continues.

   SUMMARY...Strong supercell likely produced a significant tornado
   continues moving east-northeastward within northern portions of WW
   55.

   DISCUSSION...Latest KDYX radar loop shows a well-organized supercell
   moving northeastward at 40 kt across southwestern Shackelford
   County.  A low-level mesocyclone with rotational velocity in excess
   of 70kt has been observed consistently with this storm over the past
   20 minutes, with a pronounced CC min evident.  This suggests high
   probability that a strong tornado occurred in southwestern portions
   of the county.  

   With the environment featuring mixed-layer CAPE in excess of 1500
   J/kg, and 0-1km SRH 600 m2/s2 per latest KDYX WSR-88D VWP, expect
   this storm to persist in the short term.  While the circulation has
   weakened in the most recent scans, additional cycling may occur; the
   current track of the storm would suggest areas in and around Albany
   TX will be affected in the next half hour.
