1101 PM CDT Fri May 03 2024
Areas affected…parts of southern Nebraska and adjacent
north-central Kansas
Concerning…Severe Thunderstorm Watch 181…182…
Valid 040401Z – 040500Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 181, 182
continues.
SUMMARY…A bowing band of severe storms — capable of producing
damaging wind gusts and possibly a brief tornado — will continue
moving eastward near and just north of the Nebraska/Kansas border.
DISCUSSION…Latest radar loop shows a bowing band of strong/severe
storms crossing south-central Nebraska at this time. The convection
is situated just east of a weak frontal wave, and riding along the
surface warm front. With weaker instability with eastward extent,
storms may diminish somewhat over the next 1 to 2 hours, though a
slight east-southeastward turn — along the instability gradient —
is also anticipated. Damaging wind gusts will be possible over the
next 1 to 2 hours, along with potential for a brief tornado.
