Areas affected...portions of west-central Kansas

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

Valid 292231Z - 300000Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

SUMMARY...At least an isolated severe threat may materialize with
storms initiating off of a frontal boundary. Convective trends are
being monitored for more widespread growth and subsequently, the
need for a WW issuance.

DISCUSSION...Robust, discrete convection has recently occurred along
the Ness and Rush County, KS line in association with a baroclinic
zone. In addition to widespread 8+ C/km lapse rates overspreading
KS, The latest HYS, RSL and GRD surface observations depict surface
dewpoints in the mid 60s to near 70 F, suggesting locally higher
buoyancy is present at the location of storm initiation. Given
elongated hodographs, any storms that can continue to mature may
produce severe hail. However, with overall weak forcing for ascent,
it is unclear how widespread any severe potential would ultimately
become. As such, convective trends will continue to be monitored for
the need of a WW issuance.
