AREAS AFFECTED...NORTHERN KANSAS...SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA...NORTHWEST
MISSOURI...SOUTHERN IOWA
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE
VALID 150028Z - 150230Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...60 PERCENT
SUMMARY...SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT IS EXPECTED TO OCCUR
ALONG A COLD FRONT SAGGING INTO PARTS OF NE/KS/IA/MO. A FEW SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS MAY OCCUR WITH LARGE HAIL BEING THE MAIN CONCERN. A
WATCH MAY BE NEEDED.
DISCUSSION...LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS A COLD FRONT SAGGING
SOUTHWARD ACROSS PARTS OF NE/IA. MEANWHILE, STRENGTHENING
SOUTHWESTERLY LOW-LEVEL WINDS ARE TRANSPORTING RICH MOISTURE
NORTHWARD, WITH 60S DEWPOINTS NOW AS FAR NORTH AS NORTHERN
MO/CENTRAL KS. THE LEADING EDGE OF THE RICHER MOISTURE IS EXPECTED
TO BEGIN INTERACTING WITH THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT IN THE NEXT
COUPLE OF HOURS, LEADING TO RAPID THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT.
SUFFICIENT SHEAR PROFILES WILL PROMOTE A RISK OF ORGANIZED MULTICELL
AND OCCASIONAL SUPERCELL STRUCTURES, CAPABLE OF LARGE HAIL AND
DAMAGING WIND GUSTS. AN ISOLATED TORNADO CANNOT BE RULED OUT. A
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH MAY BE NEEDED SOON FOR THIS ACTIVITY.
