   Mesoscale Discussion 0519
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0935 PM CDT Thu Apr 25 2024

   Areas affected...northern Kansas/southern Nebraska

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 133...

   Valid 260235Z - 260330Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 133 continues.

   SUMMARY...Tornado risk has diminished, but hail risk will continue
   across portions of the WW area and eastward into central
   Nebraska/north-central Kansas.  New WW will be proposed.

   DISCUSSION...Latest radar shows that storms continue to evolve into
   a more clustered mode, and mainly to the north of the surface front
   as a low-level jet continues to increase.  Resulting warm advection
   atop the surface front will continue to support thunderstorm
   development/maintenance, given moderate elevated CAPE indicated
   across the area.  While tornado threat should continue to decrease,
   potential for hail in the 1" to 1.75" range over the next few hours
   supports consideration of severe thunderstorm watch issuance, with
   the tornado watch set to expire at 26/03Z.
