URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED

Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 349

NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

245 PM CDT Sun Jun 9 2019



The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a



* Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of

  Central Texas



* Effective this Sunday afternoon and evening from 245 PM until

  1000 PM CDT.



* Primary threats include...

  Widespread damaging winds and isolated significant gusts to 75

    mph likely

  Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 2

    inches in diameter possible



SUMMARY...Severe convective cluster moving through the Dallas-Fort

Worth metroplex will likely continue southward into central Texas

through the afternoon.  Additional storm development to the west

along its outflow boundary, and along a surface cold front closer to

San Angelo, will likely lead to additional upscale growth of

clusters.  The storm environment favors very strong downdrafts and

resultant damaging wind potential, while the strongest storms may

also have transient supercell structures with large hail.



The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 125

statute miles east and west of a line from 25 miles north northwest

of Waco TX to 25 miles southeast of Del Rio TX. For a complete

depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update

(WOUS64 KWNS WOU9).



PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...



REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are

favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area.

Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening

weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible

warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce

tornadoes.
