Areas affected...northeast Kansas

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

Valid 122044Z - 122215Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

SUMMARY...A corridor of at least marginally severe hail or wind may
develop across most of northeast Kansas, perhaps western Missouri
this evening.

DISCUSSION...Despite northeasterly boundary-layer winds and cool
temperatures, sporadic elevated storms have affected the region for
much of the day. Recently, a stronger/larger area of storms has
developed, and produced a wind gust of 51 kt at Concordia, KS.
Models suggest up to 2000 J/kg elevated MUCAPE is present currently.

Aiding storm intensity are steep lapse rates aloft and favorable
effective shear over 40 kt. Given the size of the existing storm
cluster, this zone bears watching, with possible watch consideration
downstream over the next hour or so.
