Areas affected...Southern Kansas into far northeast Oklahoma...far
southwest Missouri...and far northwest Arkansas

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible 

Valid 210226Z - 210400Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

SUMMARY...Several strong to severe storms are possible early
tonight. Large hail will be the primary threat.

DISCUSSION...The last hour of GOES-16 10.35u satellite imagery shows
expanding mid-level clouds across much of southern Kansas in an area
of moist isentropic ascent. Expect several elevated storms to form
in this area over the next hour or two. With MUCAPE of 3000 to 4000
J/kg and 50 to 60 knots of effective shear per DDC 00Z sounding and
latest RAP mesoanalysis, expect these storms to be supercellular.
Very steep mid-level lapse rates (8.5 C/km per 00Z DDC sounding)
will support a primary threat of large hail. Any storms which form
in this area will likely only last for a few hours as 700mb flow
veers and isentropic lift weakens. The duration of these storms may
limit the need for a watch, but if enough storms form, a watch may
be necessary.
