MD 0597 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 172...174... FOR FAR NORTHEAST CO...WESTERN AND CENTRAL KS...SOUTHWEST/SOUTH-CENTRAL NE
Mesoscale Discussion 0597 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0955 PM CDT Wed May 01 2024 Areas affected...Far Northeast CO...Western and Central KS...Southwest/South-Central NE Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 172...174... Valid 020255Z - 020430Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 172, 174 continues. SUMMARY...The threat for large hail and damaging gusts will continue, with the tornado threat expected to gradually diminish over the next hour or two. DISCUSSION...Two separate convective regimes currently exist across the region, a discrete mode regime across central KS and a more linear, forced regime from far northeast CO into northwestern KS and southwest NE. A pair of persistent supercells remain within the discrete mode regime across central KS, although recent trends suggest each of these supercells may be weakening and becoming increasingly dissociated from the boundary layer. Even so, moist low-level flow will continue to advect northward amid a strengthening low-level jet, which will likely allow storms to persist for a bit longer before gradually weakening. Several bowing segments exist farther north from far northeast CO into far northwest KS and far southwest NE. This cluster is expected to continue eastward, with some additional southeastward development along the front possible as well. Steep mid-level lapse rates will continue to promote the development of large hail, with some strong gusts possible as well, particularly on the southern edge of this cluster and when any storm mergers occur. ..Mosier.. 05/02/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
