Areas affected...south-central Kansas into the northwestern quarter
of Oklahoma

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 182...

Valid 040441Z - 040615Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 182
continues.

SUMMARY...Risk for locally damaging wind gusts continues across
portions of south-central Kansas and adjacent northwestern Oklahoma.

DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows bands/clusters of organized
storms moving eastward across the southern half of WW 182.  Ample
instability exists ahead of the convection, given the degree of
organization, to support continuation of the storms over the next
couple of hours -- particularly given ascent associated with warm
advection as a result of the observed 50 kt low-level jet.  While
mid-level flow remains rather weak across the area, storms continue
to advance steadily eastward in tandem with rather well-defined
outflow, and will be accompanied by at least local risk for wind
gusts near or slightly exceeding severe levels.
