   URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
   Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 67
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   715 PM CDT Sat Mar 29 2025

   The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a

   * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of 
     Central and North Texas

   * Effective this Saturday night and Sunday morning from 715 PM
     until 200 AM CDT.

   * Primary threats include...
     Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 2.5
       inches in diameter possible
     Isolated damaging wind gusts to 70 mph possible

   SUMMARY...Thunderstorm coverage is expected to increase over the
   next few hours as a shortwave trough moves eastward into the region.
   Steep mid-level lapse rates will help support moderate to strong
   buoyancy in the presence of moderate deep-layer vertical shear.
   These environmental conditions could support severe thunderstorms
   capable of large to very large hail and strong wind gusts this
   evening.

   The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 60
   statute miles east and west of a line from 50 miles south of
   Brownwood TX to 55 miles north of Dallas TX. For a complete
   depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update
   (WOUS64 KWNS WOU7).

   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

   tornadoes.

   2.5 inches. Extreme turbulence and surface wind gusts to 60 knots. A
