820 ACUS01 KWNS 080052 SWODY1 SPC AC 080051 Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0751 PM CDT Fri Jun 07 2024 Valid 080100Z - 081200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE CENTRAL PLAINS... ...SUMMARY... Severe thunderstorms will spread southeast across the central Plains this evening. Damaging winds and large hail are the primary threats. ...Central Plains... Weak short-wave trough has topped the western US ridge and is now digging southeast across the central Plains. Robust convection has evolved ahead of this feature with a corridor of mixed supercells and multi cell clusters. An east-west band of severe thunderstorms extends across southern NE and this activity is propagating southeast immediately ahead of the short wave. 1km AGL inflow is roughly 30-35kt into this activity and LLJ is forecast to strengthen markedly this evening into northeast KS. This complex should grow upscale as it advances downstream. If this occurs, an organized damaging wind event could materialize along the leading edge of the cold-pool enhanced squall line. More isolated convection is noted across the High Plains of western KS and these storms should remain somewhat isolated as they propagate southeast. A more concentrated band of high-based convection has evolved from northeast NM into the eastern OK Panhandle. This activity has the potential to produce severe wind gusts as it spreads east this evening. ..Darrow.. 06/08/2024 $$
