Areas affected...far eastern Kansas into much of central Missouri
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely=20
Valid 022230Z - 030130Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent
SUMMARY...Storms are likely to develop this evening from far eastern
Kansas across much of central Missouri. Damaging winds will be the
primary risk, but hail may occur as well.
DISCUSSION...Surface analysis shows a plume of hot air with much of
northern OK into southeast KS over 105 F. Stronger boundary-layer
mixing is occurring beneath the stronger southwesterly flow aloft
with surface gusts of 20-25 kt within the heating zone. Despite
this, dewpoints remain in the 60s F, with 70s farther east of the
hot axis into MO.
A stationary front will be the main focus for develop over the next
few hours, and this extends from south of Emporia KS across the Lake
of the Ozarks and into southeast MO. Here, mid to upper 70s F
dewpoints remain, with MLCAPE over 3000 J/kg and precipitable water
to around 2.00".=20
An uncapped air mass along with speed convergence over southeast KS
into western MO near the boundary will support storm initiation
close to 00Z. Visible imagery already shows towering cumulus over
southeast KS, which appears to be the initiation zone. Depending on
the slope of the cooler air north of the front, additional activity
could form farther away from the boundary. If this occurs, hail
would be more likely as deep-layer shear increases substantially
with northward extent. Initial storm development near the boundary
will likely move slowly northeastward, with possible upscale growth
and potential acceleration by late evening as a cold pool grows.
