Areas affected...Northeast Kansas into northwest Missouri
Concerning...Tornado Watch 62...
Valid 070031Z - 070230Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 62 continues.
SUMMARY...The threat of tornadoes, damaging wind and hail persists
across the watch area.
DISCUSSION...Tornadoes have been noted recently across parts of
northeast Kansas along with several areas of strong rotation within
storms on radar. Overall storm mode along the cold front has
transitioned to QLCS/LEWPs with both damaging wind and tornado
threat. Observed VWPs ahead of the line show 0-1 SRH in excess of
400 m2/s2, highly supportive of mesocyclones and tornadoes. Leading
line of showers/thunderstorms ahead of and paralleling the front
appear to be disjointed from any boundary-layer propagation and are
essentially left-moving. The main risk will continue to be with
storms along the front.
