Areas affected...Southern Nebraska into central Kansas
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20
Valid 012000Z - 012230Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent
SUMMARY...Initial thunderstorm development is anticipated across
northwest Kansas in the next 1-2 hours. The severe threat associated
with these storms will increase as they move into central Kansas and south-central Nebraska. Watch issuance is probable by early evening
for parts of the area.
DISCUSSION...GOES visible imagery shows building, high-based cumulus
developing along/just behind the dryline in northwest Kansas. Based
on current temperature/dewpoint observations and recent forecast
soundings, this convection will likely remain somewhat shallow with
limited buoyancy (around 250 MUCAPE). However, very dry
boundary-layer conditions may promote sporadic strong downburst
winds with this initial convection. With time, this activity is
expected to spread east and impinge on a theta-e axis building
downstream across north-central KS into south-central NE. This will
promote intensification with an attendant increase in severe wind
and large hail potential as the deepening convection begins to be
influenced by strong mid/upper-level flow. A supercell or two may
emerge from this activity later this evening and could pose a
large/very-large hail threat. The tornado threat associated with any established supercells is expected to remain limited until later
this evening when richer moisture returns into the region. Watch
issuance is probable by early evening to address these concerns.
