   Areas affected...Portions of central Nebraska and Nebraska Panhandle

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 490...493...

   Valid 060248Z - 060445Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 490, 493
   continues.

   SUMMARY...A small bowing segment will pose a threat of severe wind
   gusts in WW 493. Activity has mostly diminished in WW 490, though
   marginally severe hail remains possible in the Nebraska Panhandle.

   DISCUSSION...A small bowing segment has developed in WW 493 and is
   moving southeastward out of Cherry County. The environment --
   1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE and around 40 kts of effective shear -- will
   remain supportive of storm organization. The main threat with this
   activity should be severe wind gusts. A few instances of large hail
   are also possible with near 8 C/km lapse rates across the area;
   however, linear storm mode should keep the hail threat isolated in
   nature. This line of activity should eventually weaken as it moves
   into a increasingly capped environment, as sampled by the 00Z LBF
   sounding, to its south.

   Farther west in the Nebraska Panhandle, strong/severe storms have
   persisted in WW 490. These storms have produced a few large hail
   reports in the last hour to two. While the environment is similarly
   supportive of organized storms as with points eastward, this
   activity will be modulated by rising mid-level height and increase
   MLCIN with time. With WW 490 set to expire at 9 PM MDT, it is
   possible that storms could persist near severe thresholds slightly
   beyond WW expiration.
