Mesoscale Discussion 0481
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0704 PM CDT Sun May 02 2021
Areas affected...Portions of far southern NE into northwestern and
north-central KS
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 126...
Valid 030004Z - 030130Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 126
continues.
SUMMARY...The greatest severe/damaging wind threat should focus
across parts of far southern Nebraska into northwestern and
north-central Kansas over the next 1-2 hours.
DISCUSSION...Storms have recently congealed into a line across parts
of northwestern KS and far southern NE along a surface cold front.
Current expectations are for this line to surge east-southeastward
this evening, where MLCAPE around 1500 J/kg, 35-40 kt of deep-layer
shear, and minimal MLCIN should support continued storm organization
and intensity in the short term. Isolated large hail will remain a
concern with any supercell embedded within the line. But, scattered
severe/damaging winds around 60-75 mph will likely be the main
severe threat in the next 1-2 hours across northwestern into
north-central KS given the increasingly linear nature of the
convection and the favorably mixed boundary layer supporting
efficient downdraft accelerations.
