    Areas affected...Northwest KS

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 396...397...

    Valid 072330Z - 080100Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 396, 397
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The threat for large hail, severe gusts, and possibly a
    tornado will spread eastward this evening.

    DISCUSSION...A longer-lived supercell that earlier developed across
    southwest NE is currently moving into northwest KS, with additional
    development noted to its south along a surface confluence zone.
    Moderate to strong buoyancy (MLCAPE of 2000-3000 J/kg) and favorable
    deep-layer shear (with effective shear of around 50 kt) will
    continue to support supercell potential into the early evening as
    convection spreads eastward.=20

    Large hail (possibly golfball to baseball size) may remain the most
    prominent severe hazard in the short term, given the supercell mode
    and favorable midlevel lapse rates and buoyancy, though isolated
    severe gusts will also be possible. In addition, some increase in
    low-level flow has been noted in the KUEX and KDDC VWP, with backed
    surface winds and some increase in low-level moisture noted
    downstream of the ongoing supercells. This could support a brief
    tornado threat as well.=20

    With the ongoing increase in storm coverage and some continued
    strengthening of the low-level jet expected this evening, some
    upscale growth of this storm cluster will be possible with time,
    which would potentially be accompanied by an increasing severe-wind
    threat.
