MD 0572 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 132… FOR PORTIONS OF CENTRAL/NORTHEAST KANSAS AND FAR SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA
Mesoscale Discussion 0572
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0903 PM CDT Tue May 29 2018
Areas affected...Portions of central/northeast Kansas and far
southeast Nebraska
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 132...
Valid 300203Z - 300300Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 132
continues.
SUMMARY...While some potential for a few stronger/damaging gusts
lingers, the severe threat is expected to diminish sufficiently to
allow Severe Thunderstorm Watch 132 to expire at 10pm CDT.
DISCUSSION...Diurnal cooling and previous convective overturning are
fostering a gradual downward trend in thunderstorm intensity across
Watch 132 this evening. Given nocturnal cooling and a continued
increase in surface-based inhibition, this trend is likely to
persist into the late evening hours. Therefore, the watch should be
allowed to expire at 10pm CDT. Still, following watch expiration,
steep lapse rates just above the surface (owing to a residual
boundary layer) may yield isolated damaging gusts in pockets of
stronger convection.
