CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 433...
VALID 020143Z - 020345Z
THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 433
CONTINUES.
SUMMARY...UPSCALE-GROWING THUNDERSTORM CLUSTERS SHOULD PROMOTE AN
INCREASING RISK OF SEVERE WIND GUSTS OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS --
WITHIN SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 433.
DISCUSSION...EARLIER HIGH-BASED THUNDERSTORMS ARE BEGINNING TO
INCREASE IN COVERAGE AND INTENSITY AS THEY SPREAD/DEVELOP
NORTHEASTWARD ALONG A NNE/SSW-ORIENTED SURFACE BOUNDARY IN WESTERN
KS. HERE, RICHER BOUNDARY-LAYER MOISTURE AND STEEP MIDLEVEL LAPSE
RATES ARE CONTRIBUTING TO STRONG SURFACE-BASED BUOYANCY (PER THE 00Z
DDC SOUNDING). THE GLD VWP IS SAMPLING AROUND 45 KT OF 0-6 KM SHEAR
(LIKELY WEAKER WITH SOUTHWARD EXTENT), WHICH COMBINED WITH THE
STRONG BUOYANCY, SHOULD PROMOTE CONVECTIVE CLUSTERING AND AN
INCREASING RISK OF SEVERE WIND GUSTS OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS.
