Areas affected...Southwestern Nebraska...western Kansas...portions
of the Oklahoma Panhandle

Concerning...Severe potential...Severe Thunderstorm Watch likely

Valid 142304Z - 150000Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

SUMMARY...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch will be needed downstream of
WW414 by 00z.

DISCUSSION...Broken linear structures and clusters of thunderstorm
activity have been ongoing across portions of western Colorado and
New Mexico, with a few instances of severe winds reported in
southern Colorado. CAM guidance suggests thunderstorm activity will
continue to increase in coverage and merge with deepening cold pools
as activity shifts eastward into the central Great Plains this
evening.

The air mass downstream of WW414 is characterized by MLCAPE around
1000-1400 J/kg and steep low to mid-level lapse rates. An increase
in southerly low-level jet is expected along the
Colorado/Kansas/Nebraska border through the evening. This will
support a continued risk of damaging wind, with gusts 60-75 mph
(isolated 75+ mph). Given modest shear profiles, some instances of
severe hail will be possible but the main threat will likely
continue to be damaging wind. A new Severe Thunderstorm Watch will
likely be needed downstream of WW414 soon.
