Scattered large hail likely with isolated very large hail events to 2 inches in diameter possible Isolated damaging wind gusts to 60 mph possible A tornado or two possible SUMMARY...Widely scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are expected to increase across the region late this afternoon through early evening, including parts of the I-70/I-55 corridors.

Valid 140044Z - 140245Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 35 continues. SUMMARY...Large hail and damaging wind risk continues in WW35. DISCUSSION...Recent storm activity across the south side of the St. Louis metro this evening has produced instances of large hail up to 1.75 in. Additional storm development is occurring near the surface warm font. Surface objective analysis continues to indicate around 1000-1500 J/kg of MLCAPE overlapping 40-45 kts of deep layer shear and steep low to mid-level lapse rates. This will continue to support potential for elevated supercells capable of large hail and damaging wind through the next few hours this evening. ..Thornton/Hart.. 03/14/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

MD 0220 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 37... FOR NORTHEAST KANSAS...NORTHERN MISSOURI
Mesoscale Discussion 0220 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0629 PM CDT Wed Mar 13 2024 Areas affected...Northeast Kansas...Northern Missouri Concerning...Tornado Watch 37... Valid 132329Z - 140130Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 37 continues. SUMMARY...A potential for very large hail, wind damage and a tornado or two is expected to develop across parts of northeast Kansas over the next hour, extending eastward into parts of north-central Missouri. DISCUSSION...The latest high-resolution radar from Topeka shows a cluster of intensifying convection across parts Geary and Morris Counties in Kansas. These cells are expected to grow upscale into a rotating storm over the next hour. Any storm that can become mature should eventually turn to the right to a more east-northeasterly direction. RAP analysis suggests this convection is near a maximum in instability, where MLCAPE is estimated to above 2000 J/kg. In addition, the Topeka WSR-88D VWP has veering winds with height in the lowest 2 km, with 0-6 km shear near 45 knots. This, along with 0-3 km storm-relative helicity in the 250 to 300 m2/s2 range will support supercell development. Very large hail and a tornado will be possible with this storm, or with additional intense cells that mature over the next hour or two. Additional storms are expected to develop further to the east, from near the Kansas City Metro eastward into north-central Missouri. MLCAPE in the 1500 to 2000 J/kg range, along with moderate deep-layer shear, and 700-500 mb lapse rates near 8 C/km, evident on forecast soundings, will also likely support supercell development. Large hail and wind damage will be the primary threats, although a brief tornado will be possible. ..Broyles.. 03/13/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0752 PM CDT Wed Mar 13 2024 Valid 140100Z - 141200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN NORTHEAST KS AND NORTHWEST MO... ...SUMMARY... Scattered severe thunderstorms are expected to peak in intensity this evening and persist on an isolated basis overnight, from parts of northern/central KS east towards the Lower Missouri Valley. Very large hail and a few tornadoes are the primary threats early, transitioning to a mixed large hail and damaging wind risk overnight. ...KS to the Lower MO/Mid-MS Valley... Isolated strong to severe hail storms persist near the STL Metro Area (for additional information please see MCD 222), with more numerous strong to severe storms westward across the Lower MO Valley through north-central KS. 00Z TOP sounding sampled a favorable environment for very large hail with initially weak low-level flow and ample effective bulk shear coupled with rather steep mid-level lapse rates near 8.5 C/km. Low-level flow has increased over the past hour per TWX VWP data and a few stronger/longer-lived supercells may evolve within the north KS to Lower MO Valley corridor during the next few hours with threats of very large hail and a few tornadoes. The low-level jet/convergence will further strengthening yielding increasing upscale growth later this evening. The more prominent MCS/severe cluster development will probably evolve east-northeast from ongoing convection across northeast KS. A mixed large hail/damaging wind threat should generally be expected as this activity shifts along the warm front later tonight towards the MO/IL/IA border area. ..Grams.. 03/14/2024 Read more
