    Mesoscale Discussion 0550
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0523 AM CDT Mon May 28 2018

    Areas affected...Southwest into parts of central NE

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 281023Z - 281300Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated severe storms will be possible through early to
    perhaps mid morning across southwest into portions of central
    Nebraska, with hail exceeding 1 inch in diameter possible. Limited
    spatial coverage will preclude the need for a watch.

    DISCUSSION...Trends in mosaic radar imagery and lightning data
    showed increasing storm intensities across southwest and part of
    central NE since 0920-0925Z, with this band now extending from
    approximately 20 ENE KMCK to 25 SE KMHN. Additional storms are
    forming in far southwest NE and adjacent northwest KS. The
    convection across the area appears to be associated with forcing for
    ascent attendant to a midlevel shortwave trough tracking to the
    north-northeast across western/central NE into central SD this
    morning. Although 850-mb streamline analysis indicated difluent
    flow, 700-mb mesoanalysis data suggested a corridor of confluent
    flow juxtaposed with the strongest ongoing band of storms, with warm
    advection at this level likely steepening midlevel lapse rates.
    Although effective bulk shear is expected to remain weak, steep
    midlevel lapse rates and moderate elevated instability will continue
    to support the potential for large hail. This severe risk should
    persist until mid morning at the latest, as forcing for ascent
    diminishes with the departure of the shortwave trough into the
    Dakotas.
