DISCUSSION...A moderate low-level jet, characterized by 850-mb wind speeds around 35 to 40 kt, extends from the TX Panhandle northward into southwest SD. Moderate low-level moisture exists within this corridor with surface dewpoints ranging from the low 60s across the TX Panhandle to the mid 50s across the NE Panhandle and southwest SD, and 850-mb dewpoints ranging from 18 deg C in the TX Panhandle to 13 deg C in southwest SD. This moisture lies beneath steep mid-level lapse rates, contributing to moderate to strong buoyancy. The low-level jet is expected to persist throughout the night, with some additional strengthening possible.=20 Warm-air advection associated with this low-level jet, coupled with the favorable low-level moisture and moderate/strong buoyancy, is forecast to promote thunderstorm development throughout the night. Thunderstorm development will be favored along the outflow boundaries of the ongoing storms in the northern NE Panhandle and from southwest NE into central KS.=20 Southerly low-level flow veers to more westerly aloft, supporting moderate to strong vertical shear across the entire region. Recent mesoanalysis shows a large area of 50 kt 0-6 km bulk shear across much of NE. Resulting combination of shear and buoyancy will support strong to severe storms. Large hail will be the primary threat, although some upscale growth is possible, and a few gusts could be strong enough to penetrate the low-level stability. Even so, overall severe coverage will be isolated and widely spaced, precluding the need for watch. ...Mosier/Thompson.. 06/27/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!7IZttHz3LZYbYUIuYslUveUc5mL2nGvUwPH6pO5LL6WDr3V3DI5xpDVQuFjNTqXdB9njq7Ykj= JA6WkVbCookSJNwfdA$ for graphic product...
