WATCH ISSUANCE IS NOT ANTICIPATED IN THE NEAR-TERM...BUT WILL BECOME MORE PROBABLE THIS AFTERNOON AS THE POTENTIAL FOR ALL SVR HAZARDS INCREASES. DISCUSSION...SCATTERED ELEVATED TSTMS HAVE DEVELOPED N OF A WARM FRONT INTO SERN NEB. WHILE RECENT RADAR TRENDS SUGGEST THIS ACTIVITY IS MOSTLY SUB-SEVERE...A GRADUAL INCREASE IN INTENSITY CONTINUES TO OCCUR. A GRADUAL NWD MOVEMENT OF THE WARM FRONT INTO SERN NEB IS OCCURRING AS POCKETS OF STRONGER HEATING ARE NOTED ACROSS NERN KS...AND THIS IS SUPPORTING MORE SUBSTANTIAL DESTABILIZATION NWD. THE PRIMARY SHORT-TERM THREAT ASSOCIATED WITH ONGOING ACTIVITY APPEARS TO BE LARGE HAIL AMIDST STEEP MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES BUT A COOL BOUNDARY LAYER. ADDITIONAL TSTM DEVELOPMENT LATER THIS AFTERNOON IS LIKELY FROM A TRIPLE POINT OVER CNTRL KS NEWD INTO SERN NEB AND SWRN IA ALONG A WARM FRONT...WHERE THE POTENTIAL FOR SUPERCELLS CAPABLE OF ALL SEVERE HAZARDS MAY EXIST. WHILE NEAR-TERM CONVECTIVE TRENDS ARE MORE UNCERTAIN FOR IMMEDIATE WATCH ISSUANCE...THE CURRENT FORECAST FOR INCREASING SVR POTENTIAL INTO THE AFTERNOON MAKES WATCH ISSUANCE MORE LIKELY AFTER 18Z. ..ROGERS/KERR.. 10/06/2016 ...PLEASE SEE WWW.SPC.NOAA.GOV FOR GRAPHIC PRODUCT...
