Mesoscale Discussion 1831
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0744 PM CDT Wed Aug 21 2019
Areas affected...southeast Kansas...southwest Missouri and extreme
northern Oklahoma
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 220044Z - 220245Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent
SUMMARY...Isolated downburst winds and some hail will remain
possible next couple hours as storms develop through southeast
Kansas and southwest Missouri early this evening. Due to the
expected short duration of the threat, a WW will probably not be
needed.
DISCUSSION...Storms that initiated along a quasistationary front
across east central KS have recently undergone an intensity increase
with isolated wind gusts in excess of 60 MPH reported during the
past hour. Based on latest objective analysis, storms are
approaching a corridor of stronger instability in warm sector with
temperatures around 90F and low 70s F dewpoints supporting 3000+
MLCAPE. Recent VWP from Wichita KS indicate veering winds in the
lowest 2 km and 30-35 kt sfc-6 km shear. Storms will continue
developing southeast this evening, primarily along and north of
convectively reinforced front. The downstream environment should
support mostly multicells, but possibly a couple transient supercell
structures with isolated damaging wind and hail possible through
03Z.
