Mesoscale Discussion 1150
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1151 PM CDT Wed Jul 08 2020
Areas affected...southeast NE...northeast KS
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 346...
Valid 090451Z - 090615Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 346
continues.
SUMMARY...Severe squall line will continue east-southeast. Gusts
60-75 mph are possible.
DISCUSSION...Radar mosaic shows a mature bowing squall line moving
east-southeast at 44 kt over central NE moving into southeast NE and
into northern KS as of 1145pm CDT. The Grand Island ASOS recently
measured a 62-kt gust at 1134pm. Despite gradual near-surface
cooling, upper 60s F dewpoints reside across southeast NE and
northeast KS. As a result, moderate instability will continue to
support the severe squall line into far southeast NE/northeast KS.
A watch extension-in-area or an additional severe thunderstorm watch
may be considered (depending on trends over the next few hours) to
the southeast of severe watch 346 across northeast KS, including the
greater Kansas City metro.
