    Areas affected...northeast OK/southeast KS into southwest MO and
    northwest AR

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely=20

    Valid 020930Z - 021130Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

    SUMMARY...Severe thunderstorm and tornado potential will increase
    over the next few hours. Damaging gusts and few tornadoes will be
    possible through the morning hours and watch issuance is likely.

    DISCUSSION...A line of severe storms from southeast KS into
    southwest OK will continue to shift east ahead of a cold front over
    the next few hours. A moistening boundary layer, courtesy of strong
    southerly surface winds and a nearly 70 kt low level jet beneath
    steep midlevel lapse rates will support continued organized
    convection into southwest MO/northwest AR. Regional VWP data and
    RAP-based mesoanalysis shows large, looping hodographs across the
    region. While ongoing convection has largely remained linear, large
    SRH amid these supercell wind profiles will support embedded
    supercells and QLCS tornado potential in addition to severe/damaging
    gusts and hail. A tornado watch will likely be needed across
    portions of the MCD area within the next hour.
