DISCUSSION...A SFC FRONT IS ANALYZED FROM S-CNTRL NEB SWWD THROUGH WRN KS AND INTO SERN CO...AND LOW-LEVEL LAPSE RATES CONTINUE STEEPENING S/SE OF THIS BOUNDARY OWING TO INSOLATION. THUS FAR...THE MOST ROBUST CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT HAS BEEN CONFINED TO THE SRN ROCKIES AND VICINITY. HOWEVER...VISIBLE SATELLITE TRENDS SUGGEST PATCHY CUMULUS DEVELOPMENT NEAR AND SE OF THE BOUNDARY FROM ERN CO THROUGH WRN KS AND INTO S-CNTRL NEB -- WHERE MLCINH IS BECOMING MINIMAL. FRONTAL ASCENT COMBINED WITH DIURNALLY ENHANCED OROGRAPHIC CIRCULATIONS OVER THE ROCKIES WILL CONTRIBUTE TO AN INCREASE IN CONVECTION DURING THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS ACROSS THE AREA. TSTM CLUSTERS WILL LIKELY SPREAD NEWD FROM N-CNTRL NM/S-CNTRL CO INTO/ACROSS PARTS OF KS...WITH MORE ISOLATED/WIDELY SCATTERED CONVECTION DEVELOPING FARTHER E AND ALSO SPREADING NEWD. STRONGER DEEP SHEAR IS RELEGATED TO THE COOLER SIDE OF THE SFC BOUNDARY...THOUGH 25-40 KT OF EFFECTIVE SHEAR COUPLED WITH 1500-2500 J/KG OF MLCAPE WILL BE SUFFICIENT FOR A FEW FORWARD-PROPAGATING CONVECTIVE CLUSTERS TO OFFER AN ISOLATED SVR WIND/HAIL RISK. THE LACK OF STRONGER DEEP ASCENT...AND LIMITED SPATIAL OVERLAP OF STRONGER DEEP SHEAR/BUOYANCY WILL LESSEN THE OVERALL SVR RISK. ..COHEN/HART.. 09/06/2016 ...PLEASE SEE WWW.SPC.NOAA.GOV FOR GRAPHIC PRODUCT...
