A combination of favorable conditions will support the possibility of severe thunderstorms across parts of west Texas tomorrow. Isolated supercell thunderstorms will be possible across parts of the eastern Permian Basin, in the Midland National Weather Service County Warning Area.

Large hail, and damaging thunderstorm wind gusts appear to the greatest severe weather threats at this time. However, there will also be enough rotation within the lower levels of the atmosphere to create a slight threat for an isolated tornado or two.
