SPC 0100Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0759 PM CDT Sat Jun 08 2024
Valid 090100Z - 091200Z
...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM
EAST-CENTRAL CO INTO WESTERN/CENTRAL KS...
...SUMMARY...
Severe thunderstorms capable of producing wind gusts of 70-85 mph
and large hail are expected to move from western into central Kansas
through the evening. Strong to severe storms also remain possible
from southeast Kansas into southern Missouri this evening into the
overnight hours.
...Western into central KS...
Multiple storm clusters with some embedded supercells are ongoing
from eastern CO into western KS this evening, with a short-term
threat of large to very large hail, severe gusts, and possibly a
tornado. With time, consolidation into a larger storm cluster and
possibly an MCS remains possible, which could result in an
increasing threat for damaging severe gusts in the 70-85 mph range
across parts of western into south-central KS later this evening.
See MCD 1208 for more information.
...Southeast KS/southern MO...extreme northeast OK/northern AR...
Several strong to severe storms have developed this evening across
parts of southern MO, in the vicinity of a weakly confluent surface
boundary. Strong instability and sufficient deep-layer shear will
continue to support occasional supercells capable of producing large
hail, damaging wind, and possibly a tornado. See MCD 1207 for more
information regarding the short-term threat in this area. Some
modest upscale growth of ongoing convection is possible with time,
which could spread a damaging-wind threat toward parts of the mid
MS/lower OH Valleys and potentially into western TN.
Overnight, multiple storm clusters and possibly an MCS may move
across from western into southern KS and southwest MO, and perhaps
adjacent portions of extreme northern OK/AR. The longevity of the
severe threat with the overnight storms remains uncertain with CINH
expected to increase substantially with time, but at least an
isolated threat of damaging wind and perhaps some hail could persist
through the end of the forecast period.
...Northern CA into southern/eastern OR...
High-based convection is ongoing early this evening from extreme
northern CA into southern OR. Isolated downbursts will remain
possible for a few hours this evening before convection subsides
later tonight.

MD 1205 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 398... FOR PORTIONS OF NORTHEASTERN COLORADO
Mesoscale Discussion 1205
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0539 PM CDT Sat Jun 08 2024
Areas affected...Portions of northeastern Colorado
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 398...
Valid 082239Z - 090045Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 398
continues.
SUMMARY...A localized corridor of significant severe-gust potential
(75-85 mph) is evident for the next few hours across portions of
northeast Colorado. Sporadic large hail and brief tornadoes are also
possible.
DISCUSSION...An upscale-growing cluster of storms is tracking
southeastward at around 25-30 kt across portions of northeastern CO
-- generally between I-70 and I-76. Gusts upwards of 70 mph have
been observed with these storms. During the next few hours,
continued upscale growth/cold pool consolidation is expected, aided
by a glancing shortwave trough (evident in water-vapor imagery) over
far northeastern CO. Earlier heating of a relatively moist boundary
layer (middle/upper 50s dewpoints) beneath steep midlevel lapse
rates should support continued surface-based inflow for intensifying
updrafts at the leading edge of the convective line. And, around 50
kt of westerly/line-orthogonal 0-6 km shear (sampled by regional
VWP) should aid in organized embedded updrafts with instances of
deep/persistent rotation. As a result, the organizing cold pool and
embedded supercell/mesovortex structures will be capable of
producing significant gusts of 75-85 mph as it continues
southeastward for the next few hours. Sporadic large hail and brief
tornadoes will also be possible, especially with the embedded
supercells/mesovorticies.

MD 1206 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 398... FOR PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST AND EAST-CENTRAL CO INTO FAR SOUTHWEST/WEST-CENTRAL KS
Mesoscale Discussion 1206
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0620 PM CDT Sat Jun 08 2024
Areas affected...Portions of southeast and east-central CO into far
southwest/west-central KS
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 398...
Valid 082320Z - 090045Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 398
continues.
SUMMARY...Risk of very large hail (up to 2.75 inches), significant
gusts (70-80 mph), and a couple tornadoes continues across parts of
Severe Thunderstorm Watch 398.
DISCUSSION...Latest radar data from KGLD/KPUX depicts a pair of
intense discrete supercells tracking generally east/southeastward at
around 20 kt over Kit Carson, Cheyenne, and Lincoln Counties in
east-central CO. A tornado and baseball-sized hail has been reported
with the northern/eastern supercell. These storms are in a very
favorable environment for the maintenance of supercells, with
moist/backed easterly surface winds (lower 60s dewpoints) beneath a
belt of 40-50-kt midlevel westerlies (per regional VWP).
Additionally, ample clockwise low-level hodograph curvature (around
250 m2/s2 effective SRH) should support continued strong
low/midlevel mesocyclones given the seperated/discrete mode. As a
result, very large hail (up to 2.75 inches) and a couple tornadoes
are the main concern with these storms, with locally damaging gusts
also probable.
Farther south over Otero and Bent Counties in southeastern CO, an
intense line segment has evolved in a moderately unstable air mass.
40 kt of effective shear orthogonal to the line and a
moist/well-mixed boundary layer should support the maintenance or
even intensification of these storms as they continue eastward.
Significant gusts of 70-80 mph could accompany this activity. A
brief mesovortex tornado or two is also possible with these storms,
given the ample low-level SRH described above.

WW 398 SEVERE TSTM CO KS NE WY 081825Z - 090100Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 398
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1225 PM MDT Sat Jun 8 2024
The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
* Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of
Eastern Colorado
Northwest Kansas
Southwest Nebraska
Far Southeast Wyoming
* Effective this Saturday afternoon and evening from 1225 PM
until 700 PM MDT.
* Primary threats include...
Scattered damaging winds likely with isolated significant gusts
to 85 mph possible
Scattered large hail likely with isolated very large hail events
to 2.5 inches in diameter possible
SUMMARY...Thunderstorms will continue to increase in coverage and
intensity this afternoon as they spread eastward from the Front
Range across the central High Plains. Initially large to very large
hail will be the main threat with more discrete cells. A transition
to a greater threat for significant severe winds will likely occur
as a bowing cluster eventually develops later this afternoon into
the early evening.
The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 115
statute miles north and south of a line from 10 miles west of Denver
CO to 25 miles east northeast of Burlington CO. For a complete
depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update
(WOUS64 KWNS WOU8).
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area.
Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening
weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible
warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce
tornadoes.
&&
AVIATION...A few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to
2.5 inches. Extreme turbulence and surface wind gusts to 75 knots. A
few cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 500. Mean storm motion vector
28035.

Areas affected...Portions of southeast and east-central CO into far

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 398...
Valid 082320Z - 090045Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 398
continues.
SUMMARY...Risk of very large hail (up to 2.75 inches), significant
gusts (70-80 mph), and a couple tornadoes continues across parts of
Severe Thunderstorm Watch 398.
DISCUSSION...Latest radar data from KGLD/KPUX depicts a pair of
