417 ACUS11 KWNS 210909 SWOMCD SPC MCD 210908 IAZ000-NEZ000-KSZ000-211115- Mesoscale Discussion 0866 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0408 AM CDT Tue May 21 2024 Areas affected...southeastern Nebraska Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 274... Valid 210908Z - 211115Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 274 continues. SUMMARY...Local severe risk continues across the southeastern quarter of Nebraska. DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms continue across a sizable portion of southeastern Nebraska at this time, with the strongest convection in a roughly north-south band crossing the Howard/Hall/Kearney/Franklin County vicinity. This convection is ongoing either side of the primary surface baroclinic zone, near the nose of a 60-kt south-southwesterly low-level jet. Downstream from this eastward-moving band of storms, around 1500 J/kg mixed-layer CAPE is indicated by RAP-based objective analysis on the warm side of the front. This -- along with lift provided by the surface front and aforementioned low-level jet -- should allow storms to persist over the next couple of hours, with a couple of wind gusts to near severe levels still possible, along with marginal hail. ..Goss.. 05/21/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
