    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 341...

    Valid 182050Z - 182145Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 341
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Isolated large hail remains the primary threat across
    mainly the southern portions of WW 341 in the short term. The
    damaging wind threat is still expected to increase later this
    afternoon and early evening.

    DISCUSSION...Ongoing convection remains generally confined to the
    southern portions of WW 341. A couple of marginal supercell
    structures have been noted over the past two hours, and isolated
    instances of large hail will probably remain the primary severe
    weather threat in the short term. It remains unclear how many
    additional thunderstorms will form along a surface trough across
    southeastern CO this afternoon. But with continued low-level
    convergence along this boundary, at least scattered thunderstorm
    coverage seems plausible. Another weak surface boundary is apparent
    on visible satellite imagery extending west to east across
    east-central CO into west-central KS. An isolated thunderstorm has
    recently formed just to the south of Goodland, KS along this
    boundary, and some potential may exist for more convective
    development in east-central CO. Short-term guidance remains
    insistent that convection will gradually grow upscale into one or
    more clusters/lines by early this evening. Isolated strong to
    damaging winds would become the primary concern across WW 341 and
    downstream into western KS and the western TX/OK Panhandles if this
    occurs.
