Valid 040441Z - 040615Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 182 continues. SUMMARY...Risk for locally damaging wind gusts continues across portions of south-central Kansas and adjacent northwestern Oklahoma. DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows bands/clusters of organized storms moving eastward across the southern half of WW 182. Ample instability exists ahead of the convection, given the degree of organization, to support continuation of the storms over the next couple of hours -- particularly given ascent associated with warm advection as a result of the observed 50 kt low-level jet. While mid-level flow remains rather weak across the area, storms continue to advance steadily eastward in tandem with rather well-defined outflow, and will be accompanied by at least local risk for wind gusts near or slightly exceeding severe levels. ..Goss.. 05/04/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
