    Mesoscale Discussion 0849
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0932 PM CDT Sat Jun 23 2018

    Areas affected...Southwest and south-central KS...north-central and
    northwest OK...and parts of the OK/TX Panhandles

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 206...207...

    Valid 240232Z - 240430Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 206, 207
    continues.

    SUMMARY...A new severe thunderstorm watch will be coordinated soon
    for parts of southwest and south-central Kansas, north-central and
    northwest Oklahoma, and into parts of the Oklahoma and Texas
    Panhandles. Damaging winds are expected to be the primary
    severe-weather hazard through the late evening and the overnight.

    DISCUSSION...Trends in radar imagery across southwest KS indicated a
    recent increase in forward speed (35-40 kt) of the southwest portion
    of the line of storms across this region in the KS counties of
    Hamilton and Kearny. Surface observations indicated temperatures in
    the wake of the storms were in the 50s and 60s, while downstream
    readings were in the upper 70s and 80s. The cold pool development
    and the increase in storm motion is likely indicating the impending
    scenario developing for tonight of a forward-propagating MCS to
    track southeast into the southern Plains producing damaging winds.
    The presence of a nearly untapped very unstable downstream
    environment (MUCAPE 2500-3500 J/kg) across the discussion area, with
    a strengthening southerly low-level jet at 40-50 kt from west TX
    into southwest KS through early overnight, veering later tonight
    toward daybreak Sunday.

    Southern parts of WW 207 may be extended in time beyond the 03Z
    expiration as ongoing and any new storms will continue to pose a
    severe threat, given the presence of moderately strong instability
    and effective bulk shear of 45 kt.
