A new weather watch is likely. DISCUSSION...Ahead of a fast-moving shortwave trough evident on regional water vapor imagery over the central Plains, towering cumulus was becoming more agitated near the intersection of multiple surface boundaries from central NE into portions of northern KS and western IA. Little inhibition remains on SPC mesoanalysis owing to very warm surface temperatures (> 90 F) and strong diurnal mixing. As ascent from the shortwave moves overhead within the next couple of hours, storm development appears likely. Robust MLCAPE ranging from 1500-3000 J/kg will support numerous strong updrafts with likely complex storm modes given numerous boundaries and storm interactions. 40-50 kt of effective shear will eventually support the development of organized cluster/bowing segments capable of damaging gusts and large hail. Hi-res guidance suggests an MCS may eventually develop as multiple clusters congeal and track eastward with a risk for damaging gusts and hail later tonight. Given the increasing severe potential this evening, a new weather watch will likely be needed in the next hour or two. ...Lyons/Guyer.. 05/07/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!7x6DXK0NpmGinLVJV8C1U0fMO0eZLhiGoVmgsww4gaPUdxW7poGHASCN2xihWkMu9zaDlMfNJ= isZ1LgYgQ9uOhqE1Hw$ for graphic product...
