    Areas affected...Western and South-central Kansas...Texas and
    Oklahoma Panhandles...Northwest Oklahoma

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 198...199...200...

    Valid 222214Z - 230015Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 198, 199,
    200 continues.

    SUMMARY...A wind damage and isolated large hail threat will continue
    through much of the evening as a linear MCS develops and moves
    southeastward across parts of the central and southern Plains.

    DISCUSSION...The latest radar analysis shows a fast moving bowing
    line segment across northwest Kansas with more discrete convection
    located south-southwestward into far southeast Colorado and the
    western Oklahoma Panhandle. Ahead of this activity, the RAP is
    analyzing a pocket of moderate to strong instability across
    southwest Kansas and the northern Texas Panhandle where MLCAPE
    values are in the 1500 to 3000 J/kg range. Surface analysis shows a
    narrow corridor of maximized low-level moisture from far northwest
    Oklahoma northwestward into southwest Kansas, along which a sharp
    gradient in instability exists. As the linear MCS continues to
    organize over the next few hours, the strongest part of the MCS is
    expected to move southeastward along the instability gradient where
    wind damage will be likely. The cells have been moving southeastward
    in the 40 to 45 kt range but an acceleration should take place as
    the cells congeal into a nearly continuous line. The wind damage
    threat will likely affect parts of central and southern Kansas into
    northwest Oklahoma later this evening where additional weather watch
    issuance is expected. An isolated tornado threat and large hail will
    also be possible with the more dominant supercells within the MCS.
