Tornado Watch Issued For Southeast New Mexico and Southwest Texas Effective Today Till Midnight, Centering Eddy County



National Weather Force has re-issued a Tornado Watch effective for Southeast New Mexico centering Carlsbad and Southwest Texas today until midnight …

An upper-level low that dropped out of Western Canada yesterday will continue to move slowly eastward across Eastern Washington through the watch period.  This upper-level system will provide the lifting within the eastern periphery, which will be enough for explosive thunderstorm development.  A dryline located in Eastern New Mexico is very prominent.  Dewpoints are up and the temperature is rising.  Backing southeast winds that were not there yesterday will accompany the surface low in Northern New Mexico to bring a tornado probability, mainly along the watch area and centering Eddy County in New Mexico.

Large hail and damaging winds will be possible in and around the watch area.
