MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 1647
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0506 PM CDT SAT AUG 04 2007

AREAS AFFECTED...CENTRAL/SWRN NEB...FAR NWRN KS...NERN CO

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY

VALID 042206Z - 050000Z

TSTMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG A SLOWLY MOVING BOUNDARY
ORIENTED NE-SW FROM CENTRAL/SWRN NEB INTO FAR NERN CO/NWRN KS IN THE
NEXT 1-2 HOURS. MODEST SHEAR AND INSTABILITY WILL SUPPORT AT LEAST
AN ISOLATED SVR THREAT. HOWEVER WW IS UNLIKELY.

VIS SAT IMAGERY SHOWS A LINE OF TCU EXTENDING FROM GARFIELD COUNTY
IN NCENTRAL NEB SWWD TO LBF TO NEAR GLD. THIS CONVECTION WAS LOCATED
ALONG A SLOW MOVING SFC TROUGH/WEAK COLD FRONTAL BOUNDARY. AIRMASS
OVER THE REGION AHEAD OF THE FRONT WAS MODERATELY UNSTABLE WITH
MLCAPE VALUES FROM 1500-2000 J/KG. PER REGIONAL PROFILER/VWP
DATA...VERTICAL SHEAR WAS ADEQUATE FOR SOME STORM
ROTATION/ORGANIZATION OVER NRN PORTIONS /CENTRAL NEB/ WHERE 30 KTS
OF MID LVL FLOW EXISTS. THUS ISOLATED LARGE HAIL AND DMGG WINDS WILL
BE POSSIBLE WITH ANY TSTMS ACROSS CENTRAL NEB. FURTHER SOUTH ACROSS
SWRN NEB/FAR NERN CO/NWRN KS...WEAKER MID LEVEL WINDS /AROUND 20
KTS/ WILL TEND TO LIMIT UPDRAFT ORGANIZATION. HOWEVER...30 DEG SFC
T/TD SPREAD COMBINED WITH THE INSTABILITY MAY SUPPORT ISOLATED DMGG
DOWNBURST WIND POTENTIAL.
