NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0527 PM CDT THU MAY 26 2016

AREAS AFFECTED...PARTS OF THE LOWER MO VALLEY

CONCERNING...TORNADO WATCH 215...216...

VALID 262227Z - 262330Z

THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 215...216...CONTINUES.

SUMMARY...SHORT-TERM TORNADO/DAMAGING WIND THREAT SHOULD BE CONFINED
TO SMALL PARTS OF SOUTHEAST NEB...NORTHWEST MO...SOUTHWEST IA
THROUGH 00Z.

DISCUSSION...MOST INTENSE PORTION OF THE QLCS FROM THE SOUTH-CENTRAL
NEB/NORTH-CENTRAL KS BORDER AREA TO SOUTHWEST IA IS AN EMBEDDED
MESOCYCLONE CROSSING THE MO RIVER. THIS CIRCULATION SHOULD STRUGGLE
TO DEVELOP SOUTHWARD GIVEN PRESENCE OF UPPER 50S SURFACE DEW POINTS
IN THE STRATIFORM/OVERTURNED AIR MASS ACROSS MOST OF NORTHEAST
KS/NORTHWEST MO. A POCKET OF MIDDLE 60S SURFACE DEW POINTS STILL
PERSISTS ACROSS SOUTH-CENTRAL IA...SUGGESTING THE EASTERN PORTION OF
THE QLCS MAY SHIFT INTO THIS REGION. BUT GIVEN THE EXTENSIVE
STRATIFORM REGION OCCURRING NORTH OF THE SEVERE STORMS NEAR THE
KANSAS CITY METRO AREA...TEMPORAL EXTENT OF THE SEVERE RISK MAY BE
LIMITED.
