Areas affected...Portions of central/south-central KS

Concerning...Tornado Watch 524...

Valid 130652Z - 130815Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 524 continues.

SUMMARY...Scattered severe/damaging winds and a tornado or two
remain possible with a line of storms moving eastward across central/south-central Kansas early this morning.

DISCUSSION...A robust line of storms is progressing quickly eastward
around 40-50 kt across central and south-central KS. A measured
severe wind gust to 71 mph was recently recorded at an OK Mesonet
site very near the OK/KS border in Woods County OK. Other estimated
winds around 70-75 mph have been reported with this line in KS. In
the short term, scattered severe winds will likely remain the threat
given the linear nature of the ongoing storms and the rather strong
low-level inflow associated with a 50-60 kt southerly low-level jet.
But, an embedded tornado or two also remains possible with very
favorable low-level shear. The line is currently processing the best boundary-layer instability over south-central KS, where around
1000-2000 J/kg of MLCAPE is present. Boundary-layer instability
weakens fairly quickly into southeastern KS, but low-level
moistening owing to the ongoing strong low-level warm advection may
offset this to some extent. With favorable low-level and deep-layer
shear present across this region, storms will probably be able to
maintain their intensity for at least a couple more hours.
Accordingly, Tornado Watch 524 has been locally extended eastward a
few counties by WFO ICT.
