Couplet weakened for the moment, though Altus is getting absolutely slammed by large hail.

Texas tornado from earlier.

The original circulation is dead, but a new circulation is forming to the south of Altus, and about to cross US Hwy 283. Quarter-sized hail in the city.

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 295 continues.
SUMMARY...A dangerous, tornadic supercell is expected to continue
slowly moving ESE across Jackson County, and as far south as the Red
River over the next hour.
DISCUSSION...Recent radar imagery from KFDR indicates VROT has
increased to 90-105 kt within an ongoing, confirmed tornado located
just west of Olustee, OK (southwest of Altus). The extremely
unstable environment downstream of this strong to violent tornado
will continue to favor tornadogensis, where SSE sustained surface
winds around 20 to 25 kt will enhance localized surface vorticity.
