    Mesoscale Discussion 1394
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0820 AM CDT Thu Aug 30 2018

    Areas affected...portions of far southeast KS into northeast OK and
    northwest AR into southwest and central MO

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

    Valid 301320Z - 301515Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated instances of severe hail is possible this morning
    with elevated convection. A damaging wind threat may evolve later
    this morning or early afternoon and a watch may be needed at some
    point in the next few hours.

    DISCUSSION...Convection continues to develop in the vicinity of
    ongoing convective cluster across eastern KS and western MO. 12z
    RAOB from SGF indicates modestly steep midlevel lapse rates around
    7-7.5 C/km. Deep layer shear is rather weak with around 20-25 kt
    effective shear noted on the SGF RAOB and in 12z mesoanalysis.
    However, abundant instability exists across the region and elevated
    convection has been producing bouts of severe hail. This likely will
    continue sporadically this morning.

    As the convective cluster continues to develop and track
    east/southeast along a weak surface boundary evident in
    east-southeasterly low level flow across central MO, a damaging wind
    threat could develop later this morning into the afternoon as low
    level inhibition weakens. Given the background weak shear
    environment, a stronger cold pool will need to develop to drive the
    development of a rear inflow jet and enhance the damaging wind
    threat. This area will be monitored closely for possible watch
    issuance within the next few hours.
