CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 586...
VALID 110408Z - 110545Z
THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 586
CONTINUES.
SUMMARY...THE SEVERE-WIND THREAT MAY INCREASE LATE TONIGHT, ALONG
WITH A CONTINUED THREAT FOR ISOLATED HAIL. WATCH ISSUANCE DOWNSTREAM
OF WW 586 MAY BE NEEDED.
DISCUSSION...THE REMNANT OF AN EARLIER STORM CLUSTER ACROSS
SOUTHEAST CO (AND A RELATED MIDLEVEL VORTICITY MAXIMUM) IS IN THE
PROCESS OF INTERCEPTING A CLUSTER OF SUPERCELLS ACROSS SOUTHWEST KS
LATE THIS EVENING. THIS INTERACTION, COMBINED WITH A GRADUALLY
INCREASING LOW-LEVEL JET AND EASTERLY FLOW NEAR/NORTH OF A REMNANT
BOUNDARY, COULD LEAD TO UPSCALE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF A
FORWARD-PROPAGATING MCS. SHOULD THIS OCCUR, THE SEVERE-WIND THREAT
(INCLUDING POTENTIAL FOR GUSTS NEAR OR ABOVE 75 MPH) WOULD INCREASE
INTO THE EARLY OVERNIGHT HOURS. STRONG BUOYANCY AND 30-40 KT OF
EFFECTIVE SHEAR WILL ALSO CONTINUE TO SUPPORT OCCASIONAL SUPERCELLS,
WITH A THREAT OF HAIL AND POSSIBLY A BRIEF TORNADO.
FARTHER EAST, A STORM CLUSTER ACROSS NORTH-CENTRAL OK MAY CONTINUE
TO BACKBUILD, AS NEW CELLS CONTINUE TO FORM TO THE COOL SIDE OF A
WESTWARD-MOVING OUTFLOW. EFFECTIVE SHEAR IS THIS REGION IS SOMEWHAT
WEAKER (GENERALLY 25-30 KT), BUT SUFFICIENT FOR OCCASIONAL ORGANIZED
CELLS IN THE PRESENCE OF STEEP MIDLEVEL LAPSE RATES AND STRONG
BUOYANCY. HAIL AND LOCALLY DAMAGING WIND WILL REMAIN A THREAT WITH
THE STRONGEST CELLS IN THIS CLUSTER.
THE WESTWARD-MOVING OUTFLOW FROM THE NORTHERN OK CLUSTER WILL
EVENTUALLY IMPINGE UPON THE UPSCALE-GROWING CLUSTER ACROSS SOUTHWEST
KS, AND POTENTIALLY RESULT IN SOME WEAKENING OVERNIGHT. HOWEVER,
BEFORE ANY SUCH WEAKENING OCCURS, AN ORGANIZED SEVERE-WIND THREAT
MAY SPREAD DOWNSTREAM OF WW 586, POTENTIALLY RESULTING IN NEW WATCH
ISSUANCE.
