Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

Valid 270815Z - 271015Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms capable of large
hail and damaging gusts will continue throughout the night.

DISCUSSION...A moderate low-level jet, characterized by 850-mb wind
speeds around 35 to 40 kt, extends from the TX Panhandle northward
into southwest SD. Moderate low-level moisture exists within this
corridor with surface dewpoints ranging from the low 60s across the
TX Panhandle to the mid 50s across the NE Panhandle and southwest
SD, and 850-mb dewpoints ranging from 18 deg C in the TX Panhandle
to 13 deg C in southwest SD. This moisture lies beneath steep
mid-level lapse rates, contributing to moderate to strong buoyancy.
The low-level jet is expected to persist throughout the night, with
some additional strengthening possible.=20

Warm-air advection associated with this low-level jet, coupled with
the favorable low-level moisture and moderate/strong buoyancy, is
forecast to promote thunderstorm development throughout the night.
Thunderstorm development will be favored along the outflow
boundaries of the ongoing storms in the northern NE Panhandle and
from southwest NE into central KS.=20

Southerly low-level flow veers to more westerly aloft, supporting
moderate to strong vertical shear across the entire region. Recent
mesoanalysis shows a large area of 50 kt 0-6 km bulk shear across
much of NE. Resulting combination of shear and buoyancy will support
strong to severe storms. Large hail will be the primary threat,
although some upscale growth is possible, and a few gusts could be
strong enough to penetrate the low-level stability. Even so, overall
severe coverage will be isolated and widely spaced, precluding the
need for watch.
