Mesoscale Discussion 1206

1217 PM CDT Mon Jul 30 2018
Areas affected...Southern Kansas/Northern Oklahoma
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 301717Z - 301945Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent
SUMMARY...A cluster of storms is moving south-southeast across
central Kansas. Storms may intensify as the area re-destabilizes and
severe hail is possible.
DISCUSSION...An upper-level shortwave trough is digging southeast
across the Great Plains today and per RAP analysis/water vapor
imagery, a vorticity maximum is helping to provide forcing/ascent
for the cluster of storms over central Kansas. These storms should
continue moving south-southeast and may intensify as the area
destabilizes (MLCAPE of 500-1000 J/kg) after the overnight
convection. Shear is supportive of severe hail (effective bulk shear
of 40-50 knots), but the overall multicellular evolution could
inhibit sustained, rotating updrafts/cells. With the stronger flow
aloft, storms should move rather quickly to the south-southeast
through the afternoon. Additionally, with the upper-level support
and low-level destabilization, cells may develop ahead of this
cluster. Due to the multicellular structure and lack of steep
low-level lapse rates, the overall severe potential/coverage
precludes from issuing a watch at this time. However, if the cluster
can organize into a QLCS, a watch may be necessary later this
afternoon.
