0521 PM CDT SAT JUN 06 2009

AREAS AFFECTED...CNTRL INTO NERN KS

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE

VALID 062221Z - 070015Z

AT LEAST ISOLATED STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO FORM FROM CNTRL KS NEWD
INTO NERN KS/SERN NEB LATER THIS AFTERNOON. SEVERE HAIL AND WIND
WILL BE LIKELY...AND A WW COULD BE REQUIRED.

LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS A LOW PRESSURE TROUGH FROM SW IA INTO
CNTRL/SW KS JUST AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT WHICH CONTINUES TO DRIFT SWD
INTO NRN KS. STRONG HEATING HAS ALLOWED TEMPERATURES TO REACH THE
MID 90S F...AND MODIFIED FORECAST AND OBSERVED SPECIAL SOUNDINGS
INDICATE THE CAP SHOULD BE BREACHED SOON. CONVERGENCE WITHIN THE SFC
TROUGH AS WELL AS AN INCREASING LLJ AND THETA E ADVECTION MAY BE
SUFFICIENT TO INITIATE A FEW SEVERE STORMS ACROSS CNTRL AND
ESPECIALLY NERN KS LATER TODAY. THE STEEP LAPSE RATE ENVIRONMENT
COUPLED WITH LARGE T/TD SPREADS IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER SUGGEST
RELATIVELY HIGH BASED SUPERCELLS WILL BE LIKELY...WITH LARGE HAIL
AND DAMAGING WIND GUSTS.
