Moderate MUCAPE and marginally favorable deep-layer\n    shear could support occasional intensification of these elevated\n    storms, with a threat for isolated hail.\n\n    Farther west, storms are gradually increasing in the vicinity of the\n    Davis Mountains, with a continued increase in coverage possible as a\n    low-amplitude midlevel shortwave trough approaches the region from\n    northern Mexico. Stronger heating has occurred in this area,\n    along/south of a baroclinic zone, and convection in this area could\n    evolve into more organized surface-based storms, with sufficient\n    deep-layer shear for supercell development. Moderate to locally\n    strong buoyancy and steep midlevel lapse rates will support\n    potential for large to very large hail, if any surface-based\n    supercells can evolve with time. Localized severe gusts will also be\n    possible, especially in areas along/south of the front, where\n    steeper low-level lapse rates are in place.\n\n    Coverage of severe storms later this afternoon into the early\n    evening remains uncertain, but watch issuance is possible if\n    development of multiple sustained severe storms appears imminent.\n\n    ..Dean/Hart.. 05/20/2026\n\n    ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...\n\n    ATTN...WFO...EWX...SJT...MAF...\n\n    LAT...LON   29770462 31010408 31810334 31930206 31870141 31750124\n                30650096 30220090 29760124 29390228 29260247 29090270\n                28880311 28830346 29160435 29770462\n\n    MOST PROBABLE PEAK TORNADO INTENSITY...UP TO 90 MPH\n    MOST PROBABLE PEAK WIND GUST...55-70 MPH\n    MOST PROBABLE PEAK HAIL SIZE...1.50-2.50 IN\n\n\n\nRead more",
