Areas affected...far eastern KS into western and north-central MO

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 508...

Valid 202325Z - 210100Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 508
continues.

SUMMARY...Damaging gusts and hail will continue to pose a threat
across WW 508 the next few hours.

DISCUSSION...A couple of bands of strong to severe thunderstorms
have developed near the eastward-advancing cold front this evening
from far eastern KS into western and north-central MO. Convective
mode has tended to be clusters and line segments, though a couple of
more discrete supercells also are persisting. One such cell produced
several severe hail reports in Johnson County KS the past hour or so
and any more discrete convection will continue to pose a threat for
severe hail for another couple of hours. 

Large-scale ascent is more modest across the region compared to
further north across IA/MN/WI, but MLCAPE around 1500-2500 J/kg and
effective shear magnitudes of 30-40 kt will continue to support
organized structures developing along the cold front through the
evening. In addition to the hail threat with more discrete cells,
bowing segments also may produce damaging gusts. The overall severe
threat should wane by around 03z as boundary-layer inhibition
increases and a lack of a stronger low level jet precludes more
intense/well-organized linear convection from materializing.
