    Areas affected...western IA and eastern NE

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 326...

    Valid 172148Z - 172345Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 326
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The severe-weather threat continues in WW326 across
    western IA and eastern NE. Isolated damaging wind gusts and large
    hail are possible as storms continue to develop and strengthen this
    afternoon and evening.

    DISCUSSION...Scattered thunderstorms have developed in the last
    couple of hours across WW326 as a mid-level shortwave overspreads
    the region. Diurnal heating, warm/moist advection, and steep lapse
    rates currently support MLCAPE around 1000-1500 J/kg. Bulk shear has
    been more limited, around 25 kts per current VAD profiles. However,
    as the shortwave propagates east-northeastward, 30-40-kt mid-level
    flow (currently observed at KOAX) will yield gradually strengthening
    shear profiles. This should support stronger updraft cores with
    convection developing and maturing in this area over the next couple
    of hours. The main threats will be isolated damaging wind gusts up
    to 70 mph and large hail up to around 1.5". The risk for these
    hazards should peak in the next few hours before sunset and then
    decrease relatively quickly thereafter as the shortwave overruns any nocturnally diminishing surface instability.
