Concerning…Severe Thunderstorm Watch 461…462…463…
Valid 261051Z – 261215Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 461, 462,
463 continues.
SUMMARY…Threat for damaging gusts will continues across southeast
Kansas, southwest Missouri, northeast Oklahoma, and northwest
Arkansas as a well-organized convective line moves through the
region.
DISCUSSION…A well-organized convective line continues to push
southward across southeast KS and southwest MO. Central portion of
this line has been the most progressive over the past 30 mins, with
a storm motion estimated at 45 kt. Both the TOP and EAX VADs sampled
the rear-inflow jet associated with this system, evidence of its
well-organized character. The general expectation is for the line to
continue southward, perhaps maybe slightly south-southeastward, over
the next few hours, with an attendant wind threat. Greatest wind
potential currently exists downstream from the apex of the line,
which is over far southeast KS/far northeast OK. Surface observation
at CNU sampled a 58 kt gust when this portion of the line moved
through about 45 mins ago. A confined corridor of stronger gusts may
also be realized as the rear-inflow jet interacts with a separate,
more localized convective line in the SGF vicinity.
