Valid 211108Z - 211345Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 348 continues. SUMMARY...Strong to severe storms remain possible mainly across southern parts of WW 348, with both hail and wind threat. Some severe threat could eventually materialize into far northern Oklahoma. DISCUSSION...Storms have congealed into a small MCS with a prominent leading outflow boundary over central KS. The instability/CIN gradient remains situated over the area, with the most unstable air mass from western OK into western KS. Northern portions of the MCS are now interacting with the cooler air mass around Salina KS, which extends south toward Wichita. However, higher dewpoints do exist just south and west of this area which may support a continued severe threat into south-central KS. Area VWPs from ICT and VNX indicate veering of the winds just above the surface is occurring, and this may serve to bring the more unstable air northward ahead of the MCS. Therefore, although the area from Wichita to Ponca City is currently less unstable than points west, the effective inflow just above the surface layer could destabilize enough for a severe wind risk over the next several hours. ...Jewell.. 06/21/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!57pqeYJPjU-dY6gSItZyUIWmTo38Og94xnIky1QSzPytYwhKw507tDrShSSZAAIze2_WkFBEQ= bwavubsLM_0Dw0F6dY$ for graphic product...
