The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 399
continues.
SUMMARY…Convection should increase across ww399 this evening along
with an attendant severe risk for wind/hail.
DISCUSSION…Weak short-wave ridging is expected to gradually relax
this evening. This is supported by a recent uptik in convection
south of a weak surface boundary that is currently draped east-west,
just south of I70. Visible satellite imagery depicts a considerable
amount of agitated cu from southeast KS into south-central MO where
several robust thunderstorm clusters are maturing. This activity is
evolving within a very unstable air mass, and cloud tops suggest
these updrafts are processing air efficiently. Current thinking is a
considerable amount of convection may ultimately evolve across ww399
and large hail and damaging winds are possible with these storms.
