DISCUSSION...Cluster of thunderstorms across far northeast MO and extreme southeast IA has gradually intensified over the past hour. This activity currently appears to be rooted in the 850 mb to 700 mb layer. The downstream air mass is characterized by steep mid-level lapse rates and strong buoyancy, suggesting the ongoing cluster will likely be maintained in the short-term. Estimated storm motion takes these storms across west-central IL over the next two hours. Given the prevailing low-level stability, the primary severe threat will be large hail. However, a few strong gust may be able to penetrate this low-level stable layer, especially with eastern extent where greater low-level moisture currently exists. Overall severe coverage is uncertain, precluding higher watch probabilities. However, convective trends are being monitored closely. ..Mosier/Guyer.. 08/11/2021 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...ILX...LSX...DVN...EAX...
