    Areas affected...central and western Missouri...southeastern
    Kansas...and northeastern Oklahoma

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 690...692...693...

    Valid 232338Z - 240145Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 690, 692,
    693 continues.

    SUMMARY...Severe-weather potential continues from northern Missouri
    to eastern Oklahoma this evening, where very large hail and damaging
    wind gusts remain possible locally.

    DISCUSSION...Clusters of strong/locally severe storms continue to develop/evolve, per latest radar loop, ahead of an advancing cold
    front, near a pre-frontal trough/dryline. The storms are situated
    within a strongly unstable airmass (2500 to 3500 J/kg mixed-layer
    CAPE), aided by a very moist boundary layer (upper 60s to low 70s
    surface dewpoints) beneath very steep mid-level lapse rates.=20=20

    Shear (around 40 kt sfc-6km) remains sufficient for mid-level
    updraft rotation, with a mix of multicell clusters and supercell
    modes observed. Along with potential for very large hail in the
    shorter term, locally damaging wind gusts will remain possible for
    the next several hours. Additionally, as a 40-plus kt southwesterly
    low-level jet evolves this evening, storms will likely spread
    eastward out of the existing watches across the Ozarks region, which
    could require consideration for downstream WW issuance later this
    evening.
