    Panhandle

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

    Valid 092147Z - 092315Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...The severe threat may be increasing across portions of the
    central and southern High Plains, both with storms approaching from
    central NE, and with the potential for storms to develop along the
    CO/KS border area. Severe wind and hail are the main concerns.
    Conditions are being monitored for the need of a Severe Thunderstorm
    Watch issuance.

    DISCUSSION...Multiple supercells across central NE have begun to
    grow upscale into an MCS structure, with the southwest flank of this
    structure anchoring along the surface lee trough (located from
    southwest NE and trailing along the CO/KS border). This developing
    MCS may continue to propagate south-southwestward amid a buoyant and
    sheared airmass, which in turn may support an increasing severe
    threat into northwestern KS later this evening. Multiple attempts at
    convective initiation have also been observed along the lee-trough
    in extreme eastern CO. Though convective coverage along the lee
    trough remains questionable, any storms that can develop may become supercellular, supporting severe wind and hail given 7.5-8 C/km
    mid-level lapse rates and elongated hodographs with slight low-level
    curvature. Any severe threat that materializes may last for at least
    a few hours. As such, convective trends are being monitored for the
    need of a Severe Thunderstorm Watch issuance pending adequate
    convective coverage, mainly across northwest KS.
