    Mesoscale Discussion 1326

    Areas affected...portions of central Kansas

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 260105Z - 260230Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Scattered thunderstorm development is expected over the
    next several hours. Isolated large hail may occur with the strongest
    storms.

    DISCUSSION...Scattered strong to occasionally severe thunderstorms
    are expected to develop across central Kansas north of a surface
    boundary amid strengthening lower tropospheric warm air advection.
    Effective shear of 40+ kts and MUCAPE of 500-1500 J/kg may support
    some potential for isolated large hail with the most robust cores,
    but a limited thermodynamic environment (mid-level lapse rates
    generally 6.5 C/km or less per latest objective analysis) is
    expected to limit this threat. Given the expectation for the severe
    risk to remain limited in magnitude and coverage, watch issuance
    appears unlikely at this time.

    A conditionally greater severe risk exists to the south of this
    surface boundary across far southern Kansas, but uncertainty remains
    regarding whether thunderstorms will develop/persist farther south.
