The risk for organized severe thunderstorms is low today and

A large upper trough is currently over the Great Lakes region. This
trough will move into New England tonight as a broad upper ridge
becomes established over much of the central/southern CONUS.
Scattered thunderstorms will be possible across the southwest
states, south TX, and much of the southeastern US. There might be a
strong storm or two with gusty winds or hail in west-central NM this
afternoon, but in general the convective activity is expected to
remain below severe limits.
