   Areas affected...Western KS...OK/Northern TX Panhandle Region

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 363...

   Valid 130111Z - 130215Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 363
   continues.

   SUMMARY...New severe thunderstorm watch may be warranted across
   western KS into the northern TX Panhandle.

   DISCUSSION...A reservoir of yet-to-be overturned instability,
   characterized by MLCAPE of 2000-3000 J/kg, continues across parts of
   western KS. 00z sounding from DDC exhibited seasonally steep lapse
   rates with surface-6km shear supportive of maintaining organized
   convection. Deep-layer flow suggests ongoing convection across
   eastern CO/northwest KS should propagate into DDC CWA over the next
   few hours, and this activity should be aided by increasing LLJ.
