    Mesoscale Discussion 1686
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0458 PM CDT Sun Jul 23 2023

    Areas affected...Portions of MO into west-central IL

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

    Valid 232158Z - 240030Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...An isolated risk for severe hail and damaging winds may
    continue into the early evening. Watch issuance is not expected at
    this time.

    DISCUSSION...Scattered thunderstorms have developed late this
    afternoon along a weak surface trough across parts of
    northern/eastern MO as a weak mid-level disturbance cresting the
    upper ridge continues southeastward across the upper/mid MS Valley.
    The airmass downstream of this activity into central MO and
    west-central IL is moderately unstable, with MLCAPE generally
    2000-2500 J/kg. But, deep-layer shear remains marginal, around 20-25
    kt, given fairly modest mid/upper-level northwesterly flow. Still,
    occasional updraft organization has been noted with the strongest
    cores, with a recent 1 inch severe hail report. Isolated severe hail
    and damaging winds may remain a threat with this convection as it
    spreads slowly southward over the next couple of hours. Given the
    weak shear, watch issuance is not expected at this time.
