VALID 020100Z - 021200Z

...NO SVR TSTM AREAS FORECAST...

...HIGH PLAINS...
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED TSTMS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE HIGH PLAINS
TONIGHT...MAINLY ACROSS THE WESTERN DAKOTAS AHEAD OF MIGRATORY UPPER
LOW...WITH OTHER STORMS CONTINUING ACROSS SOUTHEAST CO/EASTERN NM
MAINLY OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS. LATE TONIGHT...VIA AN INCREASING
SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL JET/WARM ADVECTION REGIME...OTHER STORMS MAY
FORM ON THE EDGE OF THE EML ACROSS EASTERN KS AND SURROUNDING
PORTIONS OF OK/NEB. SOME MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL CANNOT BE RULED OUT
WITHIN THESE AFOREMENTIONED REGIMES...BUT MODEST MOISTURE AND/OR A
DECOUPLING BOUNDARY LAYER IS SUGGESTIVE OF A LIMITED SEVERE RISK
OVERALL.

...SOUTHERN AZ...
HOT/DEEPLY MIXED AIRMASS MAY PROMOTE LOCALIZED GUSTY WINDS/BLOWING
DUSTS WITH WESTWARD DEVELOPING STORMS/OUTFLOW THIS EVENING...BUT A
QUASI-ORGANIZED SEVERE RISK SEEMS UNLIKELY.

...NO SVR TSTM AREAS FORECAST...

...NRN/CNTRL HIGH PLAINS...

LATEST SATELLITE IMAGERY CLEARLY DEPICTS CENTER OF UPPER VORT/LOW
OVER SERN MT...ROUGHLY 45E OF BIL...MOVING SLOWLY ESEWD. CU FIELD
IS BEGINNING TO EXPAND/DEEPEN ALONG LEADING EDGE OF THIS COMPACT
SYSTEM FROM NEAR MLS...TO WEST OF GCC. THUNDERSTORMS WILL GRADUALLY
INCREASE ACROSS THE NRN HIGH PLAINS AHEAD OF THIS
FEATURE...ESPECIALLY FROM THE NRN BLACK HILLS REGION INTO SERN MT
WHERE LAPSE RATES HAVE NOW STEEPENED TO NEAR DRY ADIABATIC IN THE
LOWEST FEW KM. HAIL OR PERHAPS GUSTY WINDS MAY ACCOMPANY THE
STRONGER STORMS...IN LINE WITH EARLIER THINKING.

...ELSEWHERE...

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE DEVELOPING AS EXPECTED ACROSS MUCH OF
THE HIGHER TERRAIN FROM AZ...NEWD ACROSS THE 4-CORNERS REGION INTO
SWRN CO. WEAK MCV IS EVIDENT IN SATELLITE IMAGERY JUST EAST OF EED.
THIS FEATURE MAY ENHANCE CONVECTION ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN BUT
INSTABILITY IS QUITE WEAK AND DO NOT EXPECT ACTIVITY NORTH OF THE
DESERT VALLEYS TO PRODUCE MORE THAN SMALL HAIL OR GUSTY WINDS.

..DARROW.. 09/01/2009

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1101 AM CDT TUE SEP 01 2009/

MUCH OF CONUS UNDER LATE SUMMER RATHER SLUGGISH FLOW PATTERN AS
PRIMARY WESTERLIES REMAIN ACROSS CANADA. COMPACT UPPER LOW CENTRAL
MT CONTINUES SLOWLY E/SE AROUND UPPER HIGH CENTERED VICINITY
4-CORNERS. A LITTLE STRONGER WESTERLIES S OF MT LOW CIRCULATION IS
PROVIDING SUFFICIENT SHEAR ALONG WITH THE PRESENCE OF AN ELEVATED
MIX LAYER TO SUPPORT A FEW STRONGER STORMS LATER THIS AFTERNOON.

...HI PLAINS...
JUST AHEAD OF THE MT UPPER LOW AND SWD VICINITY THE WEAK N/S SURFACE
TROUGH INTO CENTRAL HI PLAINS...SCATTERED STRONG THUNDERSTORMS WILL
BE POSSIBLE BY MAX HEATING. SUFFICIENT LOW/MID LEVEL MOISTURE
ALONG/E OF SURFACE CONVERGENCE ZONE TO DEVELOP MLCAPES TO 1000 J/KG.
WITH THE PRESENCE OF STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND 30 KT DEEP
LAYER SHEAR...A FEW STORMS CAPABLE OF HAIL AND ISOLATED DAMAGING
DOWNBURSTS WILL BE POSSIBLE ONCE SURFACE BASED INITIATION OCCURS
LATER THIS AFTERNOON. STORMS WILL THEN MOVE SLOWLY EWD INTO HIGH
PLAINS PRIOR TO WEAKENING THIS EVENING WITH LOSS OF HEATING.

...SRN AZ...
MONSOON MOISTURE CONTINUES TO SLOWLY INCREASE NWD ACROSS SRN AND WRN
AZ. WHILE DEEP LAYER SHEAR/STEERING FLOW REMAINS GENERALLY
WEAK...STEEP LAPSE RATES COUPLED WITH HIGH LCL/S SHOULD AGAIN
SUPPORT LOCALLY DAMAGING DOWNBURSTS INTO THE DESERT VALLEYS LATE
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. SEVERE THREAT WILL REMAIN MARGINAL
BASED ON NOT ONLY THE RELATIVELY WEAK SHEAR PROFILES...BUT ALSO
LIMITED CAPE WITH THE STILL LACK OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE/INSTABILITY.

...NO SVR TSTM AREAS FORECAST...

...CENTRAL PLAINS...

SLOW-MOVING UPPER LOW WILL SOON TOP WRN U.S. RIDGE AND DIG SEWD INTO
THE CNTRL PLAINS STRENGTHING NWLY FLOW/SHEAR ACROSS THIS REGION.
ONE THING SEEMS APPARENT...INCREASING WARM ADVECTION ALONG N-S AXIS
OVER THE PLAINS WILL ENHANCE CONVECTIVE THREAT OFF AND ON THROUGH
THE PERIOD. ALTHOUGH DIURNAL HEATING SHOULD CONTRIBUTE TO AFTERNOON
THUNDERSTORMS INVOF UPPER LOW...SWD INTO WRN KS...EPISODIC ELEVATED
THUNDER EVENTS ARE EXPECTED EARLY AND LATE IN THE PERIOD THROUGH
ISENTROPIC PROCESSES. LATEST MODEL GUIDANCE SUGGESTS STEEPER LAPSE
RATES WILL CONTRIBUTE TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF ROBUST THUNDERSTORM
ACTIVITY ACROSS THE HIGH PLAINS...ESPECIALLY WITHIN AXIS OF STRONGER
INSTABILITY...MUCAPES APPROACHING 1500 J/KG. A SLIGHT RISK MAY NEED
TO BE ADDED TO PORTIONS OF THE PLAINS WHERE SHEAR/INSTABILITY
COMBINATION MAY ENHANCE THE PROSPECT FOR A FEW SUPERCELLS.


...SWRN DESERT REGION...

HURRICANE JIMENA IS FORECAST TO LIFT NNEWD ACROSS THE CNTRL BAJA
PENINSULA LATE WEDNESDAY. THIS MOVEMENT SHOULD FORCE A SURGE OF
CONSIDERABLY HIGHER MOISTURE ACROSS THE NRN MEXICAN DESERTS INTO SRN
AZ/CA. PWAT VALUES SHOULD EASILY RISE ABOVE 1.5 INCHES ALONG THE
MEXICAN BORDER WHICH WILL ENHANCE INSTABILITY ALONG LEADING EDGE OF
THICKER CLOUDINESS. STRONG HEATING NEAR THIS TRANSITION SHOULD
ENHANCE THERMODYNAMIC PROFILES/GUSTY WIND POTENTIAL BENEATH
STRONGER/HEAVIER RAIN CORES.

...NO SVR TSTM AREAS FORECAST...

...SYNOPSIS...
THE MAIN BELT OF THE WLYS WILL REMAIN WELL REMOVED FROM THE LWR 48
OVER CNTRL CANADA THIS PERIOD...LEAVING THE STATES IN A SLUGGISH
REGIME FEATURING A RDG OVER THE SRN RCKYS...AND A BROAD TROUGH IN
THE EAST. IN BAND OF SLIGHTLY-ENHANCED FLOW TOPPING THE RDG...MT
UPR LOW SHOULD CONTINUE ESE INTO WRN SD BY 12Z WED...WHILE MID LVL
MOISTURE GRADUALLY INCREASES OVER THE LWR CO VLY.

AT LWR LVLS...DIFFUSE FRONT SHOULD SETTLE SLOWLY S ACROSS FL AND THE
GULF OF MEXICO...AND FARTHER SE OFF THE S ATLANTIC CST...BACKED BY
COOL/DRY SFC RDG THAT WILL FURTHER ELONGATE FROM THE ERN PLNS/GRT
LKS TO WELL OFF THE NEW ENGLAND CST.

...HI PLNS...

SLIGHT EWD EXPANSION OF UPR RDG INTO THE SRN HI PLNS. A FEW TSTMS
SHOULD FORM WITH SFC HEATING THIS AFTN IN NARROW N-S ZONE OF
INSTABILITY /SBCAPE AROUND 1000 J PER KG/ ALONG LEE TROUGH/MOISTURE
AXIS OVER THE NRN HI PLNS AND THE BLACK HILLS. COUPLED WITH BELT OF
30+ KT MID LVL WNWLY FLOW ON SRN FRINGE OF MT LOW...SETUP MAY
SUPPORT A COUPLE SUSTAINED STORMS/WEAK SUPERCELLS WITH HAIL NEAR THE
BLACK HILLS.

FARTHER S...WDLY SCTD AFTN STORMS ALSO EXPECTED OVER THE MOUNTAINS
AND ADJACENT HI PLNS OF CNTRL/ERN CO AND NE NM THIS AFTN/EARLY
TONIGHT. MID LVL FLOW SHOULD BE A BIT WEAKER RELATIVE TO RECENT
DAYS. BUT STEEP LOW LVL LAPSE RATES AND MODEST MOISTURE MAY SUPPORT
A FEW SUSTAINED STORMS AND POSSIBLY A SUPERCELL OR TWO WITH SVR
HAIL/GUSTY WINDS...GIVEN STRONGLY VEERING WIND PROFILES AND 30-35 KT
CLOUD LAYER SHEAR.

...CNTRL/S FL...
WEAK IMPULSES NOW OVER THE LWR MS VLY ARE FCST TO SLIGHTLY AMPLIFY
SRN PART OF LARGER SCALE TROUGH OVER THE ERN GULF TODAY...WHERE RICH
MOISTURE /PW AROUND 2 INCHES/ PERSISTS INVOF OLD FRONT. NUMEROUS
SHOWERS/TSTMS SHOULD FORM WITH SFC HEATING OVER CNTRL/SRN
FL...ESPECIALLY ALONG SEA BREEZE BOUNDARIES. DESPITE WEAK MID LVL
LAPSE RATES AND SHEAR...SETUP MAY SUPPORT UPSCALE GROWTH INTO
SEVERAL LARGE CLUSTERS WITH A THREAT FOR ISOLD WET MICROBURSTS.

...SRN AZ...
INCREASING MOISTURE...ASSOCIATED WITH SLIGHT EWD SHIFT OF UPR RDG
AND CONVECTION OVER NW MEXICO...AND 15-20 KT ESE MID LVL FLOW... MAY
SUPPORT ANOTHER ROUND OF STORMS THAT PROPAGATE WNW OFF THE SE AZ
MOUNTAINS. SOME EMBEDDED CELLS MAY YIELD GUSTY OUTFLOW
WINDS/BLOWING DUST OVER THE LWR DESERTS LATE THIS AFTN AND EARLY
TONIGHT.

UPPER JET NOW NOSING SOUTH OF THE ALEUTIANS. WHILE THE RISK FOR
SEVERE STORMS MAY NOT BE COMPLETELY NEGLIGIBLE ACROSS PARTS OF THE

0225 AM CDT TUE SEP 01 2009

VALID 031200Z - 041200Z

...NO SVR TSTM AREAS FORECAST...

...SYNOPSIS...
WITH A STRONG JET STREAK STILL DIGGING ON THE WESTERN/SOUTHERN
PERIPHERY OF AN EVOLVING CLOSED LOW/TROUGH OFF THE BRITISH
COLUMBIA/PACIFIC NORTHWEST COAST...MODELS SUGGEST THAT A LEAD SHORT
WAVE IMPULSE...IMPACTING THE CASCADES EARLY IN THE PERIOD... WILL
RAPIDLY LIFT TO THE LEE OF THE CANADIAN ROCKIES THURSDAY. MUCH OF
THE NATION WILL REMAIN WELL SOUTH OF THE STRONGER HIGH LEVEL
WESTERLIES...AND CHARACTERIZED BY GENERALLY WEAK LOWER/MID
TROPOSPHERIC FLOW. ONE EXCEPTION COULD BE PORTIONS OF THE SOUTH
CENTRAL PLAINS...WHERE NORTHWESTERLY MID-LEVEL FLOW MAY BE SOMEWHAT
ENHANCED BY AN IMPULSE DIGGING WITHIN A PREVAILING BROADER SCALE
CYCLONIC FLOW REGIME.

...SOUTH CENTRAL PLAINS...
AS THE REMNANT CIRCULATION/SHORT WAVE TROUGH ADVANCES SOUTHEASTWARD
THROUGH THE EAST CENTRAL PLAINS...MODELS INDICATE THAT NORTHWESTERLY
500 MB WINDS MAY STRENGTHEN UP TO 30-35 KTS ACROSS KANSAS INTO
OKLAHOMA DURING THIS PERIOD. POTENTIAL FOR NEGATIVE FEEDBACK FROM
EARLY DAY CONVECTION PROVIDES UNCERTAINTY CONCERNING SEVERE
POTENTIAL LATER IN THE DAY...AND A RETURN FLOW FROM THE GULF OF
MEXICO STILL APPEARS UNLIKELY. BUT...STEEP LAPSE RATES ON THE NOSE
OF AN ELEVATED MIXED LAYER EMANATING FROM THE PLATEAU REGION COULD
CONTRIBUTE TO SUBSTANTIAL DESTABILIZATION ...PARTICULARLY IF THE
BOUNDARY LAYER IS ABLE TO WARM SIGNIFICANTLY. IF THIS
OCCURS...STORMS...INCLUDING ISOLATED SUPERCELLS...CAPABLE OF
PRODUCING HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS ARE POSSIBLE...MAINLY IN A ZONE OF
STRONG LOW-LEVEL WARM ADVECTION ACROSS SOUTHERN KANSAS INTO EASTERN
OKLAHOMA...PERHAPS ALSO AHEAD OF A WEAK COLD FRONTAL SURGE ACROSS
WESTERN OKLAHOMA.

DAY 1 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1245 AM CDT TUE SEP 01 2009

VALID 011200Z - 021200Z

...NO SVR TSTM AREAS FORECAST...

...SYNOPSIS...
WEAK WESTERLIES WILL CONTINUE TO PREVAIL WITHIN A RELATIVELY
AMPLIFIED LARGE SCALE FLOW REGIME. SOUTHEAST STATES FRONTAL ZONE
WILL CONTINUE TO SHIFT SOUTHWARD ACROSS NORTHERN FL/NORTHERN GULF OF
MEXICO...WITH COOL/STABLE CONDITIONS DOMINATING MUCH OF THE EAST
WITH BROAD SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES
REGION. DETACHED FROM APPRECIABLE WESTERLIES...REMNANT UPPER LOW
WILL CONTINUE TO MIGRATE EASTWARD OVER THE NORTHERN HIGH PLAINS...AS
A BROAD UPPER RIDGE OTHERWISE REMAINS CENTERED OVER THE SOUTHERN
ROCKIES.

...HIGH PLAINS...
AS UPPER LOW SHIFTS EASTWARD OVER EASTERN MT TOWARD THE WESTERN
DAKOTAS...RESIDUAL COOL POCKET ALOFT WILL CONTRIBUTE TO STEEPENING
MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES ACROSS THE NORTHERN HIGH PLAINS...WHILE
HEIGHTS MODESTLY RISE OVER THE SOUTH CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS. ACROSS THE
NORTHERN HIGH PLAINS...TSTMS SHOULD INCREASE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON
IN VICINITY OF LEE SIDE SURFACE FRONT/TROUGH AND MOISTURE AXIS
ACROSS EASTERN MT/NORTHEAST WY AND THE ADJACENT WESTERN DAKOTAS. A
STEEP LAPSE RATE ENVIRONMENT WITH MODEST BUOYANCY /500-1000 J PER KG
MUCAPE/ MAY BE SUFFICIENT FOR SOME TSTMS TO PRODUCE HAIL TO SEVERE
LEVELS AMIDST A WEAKLY SHEARED REGIME AHEAD OF THE UPPER LOW.

FARTHER SOUTH...OTHER POTENTIALLY STRONG/SEVERE TSTMS WILL LIKELY
AGAIN DEVELOP ACROSS THE FRONT RANGE/ADJACENT HIGH PLAINS OF
SOUTHEAST CO/NORTHEAST NM BY LATE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING. MODEST
MOISTURE/BUOYANCY AND STRONGLY VEERED LOW TO MID TROPOSPHERIC WINDS
/30-35 KT EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR/ WILL SUPPORT MULTICELLULAR STORMS
CAPABLE OF SEVERE HAIL/GUSTY WINDS THROUGH EARLY EVENING.

...CENTRAL/SOUTHERN FL PENINSULA...
A MODESTLY AMPLIFYING UPPER TROUGH AXIS AND PERHAPS ONE OR MORE
EMBEDDED SUBTROPICAL DISTURBANCES WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP EASTWARD
OVER THE EASTERN GULF TODAY...WITH A CONTINUED GULF MOISTURE INFLUX
ACROSS THE FL PENINSULA. SHOWERS/TSTMS WILL CONTINUE TO BE COMMON
ALONG THE FAR NORTHERN FL FRONTAL ZONE...WITH OTHER TSTMS LIKELY
FARTHER SOUTH IN VICINITY OF SEA BREEZE/S WITH PROSPECTS FOR
SOMEWHAT GREATER DESTABILIZATION ACROSS THE SOUTHERN FL PENINSULA.
WHILE CLOUD COVER MAY TEND TO TEMPER HEATING...AND MID LEVEL LAPSE
RATES/MODEST VERTICAL SHEAR ARE LIMITING FACTORS...A FEW OF THE
STRONGER STORMS MAY BE CAPABLE OF DOWNBURSTS/PERHAPS PULSE HAIL ON
AN ISOLATED BASIS THIS AFTERNOON.

...SOUTHERN AZ...
WHILE DETAILS ARE A BIT UNCLEAR...IT SEEMS THAT MOISTURE MAY
GRADUALLY INCREASE INTO SOUTHERN AZ THROUGH THE PERIOD...ESPECIALLY
SOUTHWEST AZ/LOWER CO RIVER VALLEY...OWING TO CONVECTION OVER
NORTHWEST MEXICO AND THE GRADUAL APPROACH OF HURRICANE JIMENA TOWARD
BAJA /PER LATEST NHC GUIDANCE/. AS THE PERSISTENT UPPER RIDGE
REMAINS CENTERED NEAR THE FOUR CORNERS AREA...15-20 KT ESE STEERING
FLOW SAMPLED BY 00Z/SEP 1 OBSERVED RAOBS FROM TUCSON/PHOENIX SEEMS
LIKELY TO PERSIST THROUGH THE DAY. AS SUCH...IT SEEMS PROBABLE THAT
SOME OF THE STRONGER STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF GUSTY OUTFLOW
WINDS/BLOWING DUST AS THEY DEVELOP ACROSS/ONTO THE DESERT FLOOR LATE
THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING.

DAY 2 CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1242 AM CDT TUE SEP 01 2009

VALID 021200Z - 031200Z

...NO SVR TSTM AREAS FORECAST...

...SYNOPSIS...
STRONGER WESTERLIES STILL APPEAR LIKELY TO REMAIN GENERALLY WELL
NORTH OF THE CANADIAN/U.S. BORDER THROUGH THIS FORECAST PERIOD.
HOWEVER...A STRONG ZONAL POLAR JET STREAK NOSING ACROSS THE MID
LATITUDE PACIFIC IS PROGGED TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE NORTHEASTWARD
ACCELERATION OF A PREVIOUSLY CUT-OFF UPPER LOW ACROSS THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST COAST BY LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT/EARLY THURSDAY. AS THIS
OCCURS...DESTABILIZATION ASSOCIATED WITH MOISTURE ADVECTION ON
SOUTHERLY FLOW MAY SUPPORT SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE
NORTHERN GREAT BASIN DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. A BIT
LATER IN THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT...MID-LEVEL COOLING AND
STRENGTHENING ONSHORE FLOW MAY BE ACCOMPANIED BY A FEW STORMS ALONG
THE WESTERN SLOPES OF THE CASCADES.

WHILE UPPER RIDGING WEAKENS ACROSS PARTS OF THE NORTHWEST...
DOWNSTREAM FLOW IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN BROADLY ANTICYCLONIC ACROSS
MUCH OF THE INTERMOUNTAIN WEST AND ROCKIES INTO THE PLAINS... WHILE
WEAK CYCLONIC FLOW LINGERS ACROSS MUCH OF THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY
THROUGH THE ATLANTIC SEABOARD. A COUPLE OF SMALL MID-LEVEL
CIRCULATIONS DIGGING EAST OF THE RIDGE INTO THE TROUGH MAY BE
ACCOMPANIED BY SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS MUCH OF THE NORTHERN
AND CENTRAL PLAINS AND PARTS OF THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY.
BUT...SEASONABLY HIGH MOISTURE CONTENT AIR CHARACTERIZED BY
PRECIPITABLE WATER IN EXCESS OF 2 INCHES IS ONCE AGAIN EXPECTED TO
BE CONFINED TO THE FLORIDA PENINSULA...ALONG WITH HIGHEST
THUNDERSTORM PROBABILITIES.

MEANWHILE...A SIGNIFICANT MOISTURE INCREASE OFF THE GULF OF
CALIFORNIA INTO THE SOUTHERN PLATEAU REMAINS POSSIBLE...AIDED BY
HURRICANE JIMENA. AND THIS WILL PROBABLY ALSO BE ACCOMPANIED BY AT
LEAST SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY.

...CENTRAL PLAINS...
NORTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT STILL APPEARS LIKELY TO STRENGTHEN SOMEWHAT
IN A BROKEN BAND ACROSS THE REGION WEDNESDAY... CONTRIBUTING TO
MODESTLY STRONG DEEP LAYER SHEAR SUFFICIENT FOR SUPERCELLS...AT
LEAST IN POCKETS. WITH NO GULF RETURN FLOW DEVELOPING...MOISTURE
LEVELS REMAIN THE PRIMARY LIMITING FACTOR WITH REGARD TO SEVERE
POTENTIAL...GIVEN THE EXPECTED PRESENCE OF STEEP LAPSE RATES. SREF
GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO INDICATE THAT MIXED LAYER CAPE WILL MOST
LIKELY REMAIN BELOW 2000 J/KG.

WITHIN A BROADER LOW-LEVEL WARM ADVECTION REGIME ACROSS MUCH OF THE
CENTRAL PLAINS...VIGOROUS STORM DEVELOPMENT DURING THE AFTERNOON
HOURS SEEMS MOST PROBABLE FROM PARTS OF WEST CENTRAL/SOUTHWEST
NEBRASKA INTO PARTS OF NORTHWEST/NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS. THIS IS
WHERE FORCING ASSOCIATED WITH THE DIGGING MID-LEVEL CIRCULATION MAY
WEAKEN INHIBITION...ALLOWING FOR AT LEAST ONE OR TWO SEVERE STORMS
CAPABLE OF LARGE HAIL/DAMAGING WIND GUSTS. THIS ACTIVITY MAY NOT
LAST LONG INTO THE EVENING...BUT NEW STORM DEVELOPMENT COULD
SUBSEQUENTLY DEVELOP ON THE NOSE OF A NOCTURNALLY STRENGTHENING
LOW-LEVEL JET...FROM PARTS OF CENTRAL KANSAS INTO PARTS OF
CENTRAL/EASTERN OKLAHOMA...WHERE A WARM ELEVATED MIXED LAYER MAY
SUPPRESS DAYTIME CONVECTION. IF THIS OCCURS...STRONGER ACTIVITY
COULD ALSO BE ACCOMPANIED BY SOME HAIL AND POTENTIALLY DAMAGING WIND
GUSTS.

...SOUTHERN PLATEAU...
CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL FOR WEDNESDAY IS STILL UNCLEAR...BUT THE RISK
FOR STORMS IN THE PRESENCE OF A DEEPLY MIXED BOUNDARY LAYER WITH
SIZABLE TEMPERATURE/DEW POINT SPREADS AND WEAK TO MODERATE POTENTIAL
INSTABILITY SUPPORTS AT LEAST LOW SEVERE PROBABILITIES.
