   Areas affected...Eastern KS

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible 

   Valid 160918Z - 161015Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

   SUMMARY...A couple severe storms may develop across eastern KS
   through sunrise with all hazards possible.

   DISCUSSION...A swath of initially elevated convection has persisted
   across eastern KS. One cell over southwest Greenwood county appears
   to have finally acquired supercell character over the past 30
   minutes and may mark the transition to a realized severe threat into
   sunrise. Additional candidate storms to its west and northwest will
   have potential as well to become supercells or at least organized
   clusters as convection advances northeast this morning. The overall
   threat should remain spatially isolated. The tornado threat will be
   limited towards the MO border given less-quality boundary-layer
   moisture with eastern extent.
