   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 167...

   Valid 010245Z - 010345Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 167
   continues.

   SUMMARY...Severe wind and hail threat continues within WW165 and
   WW167.

   DISCUSSION...A line of thunderstorms moving SSE out of Kansas
   continues to produce reports of winds 50-60 mph (strongest gusts
   earlier 70+ mph) along with recent reports of hail up to 1.25 in
   near Ponca City, OK. This line of storms continues to move toward a
   favorable air mass, with ample moisture and MLCAPE around
   2,000-3,000 J/kg. 850 mb analysis shows this convection is
   juxtaposed with a 40-kt southerly low-level jet. This will promote
   further potential for instances of damaging wind and large hail. The
   potential for damaging winds is most likely across the eastern
   portion of this line, where radar is indicating downdrafts capable
   of winds 50-65 mph.
