The severe threat is expected to remain isolated and a WW issuance is not expected. DISCUSSION...A surface low continues to intensify across the central High Plains as a mid-level trough impinges on the central U.S. from the Rockies. A mid-level impulse is approaching the northern Plains from central WY, which should support convective intensification through the remainder of the evening into early overnight across portions of eastern WY into western SD/NE. Strongly forced, low-topped convection will develop and intensify atop a relatively dry boundary layer extending up to 700 mb. Though overall buoyancy is scant, the dry boundary layer consists of steep low-level lapse rates (i.e. 8-9 C/km per 22Z mesoanalysis) which could foster efficient downward momentum transport in the stronger storms to support damaging gusts. Nonetheless, the severe threat is expected to remain isolated and a WW issuance is not expected. ...Squitieri/Edwards.. 04/18/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!99aexXv4b8IwpBoVgrr0IdjQ1QcbQp6eTmFISZoMBxFfAL6fA7WGD1ErJbkAUJZMJiY3O1-z8= eJfnLAegvChj4b_TCg$ for graphic product...
