Convective and environmental trends are being monitored for a possible watch. DISCUSSION...Surface observations and visible satellite imagery indicated a WNW/ESE-oriented remnant outflow boundary draped across parts of central KS this afternoon -- where a pocket of deepening boundary-layer cumulus is developing. Steep midlevel lapse rates accompanying an EML plume across the area, coupled with diurnal destabilization, will yield moderate surface-based instability. Given weak large-scale ascent and lingering inhibition at the base of the EML, thunderstorm coverage may be limited across the area. However, any storms that can mature in the vicinity of the remnant outflow boundary could pose a risk of isolated large hail and locally damaging gusts given an elongating/straight hodograph (40-50 kt of effective shear).=20 It is unclear if a watch will be needed this afternoon, though the severe risk should increase further this evening as isentropic ascent atop the remnant outflow boundary gradually strengthens. ...Weinman/Bunting.. 07/16/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!9pS90nYhWSBQxGqcIJ7AN8IwzjRWB3bQos7JW6qui7oQ79zOWEJcTzD8CYsklJdEZ__HPdTEW= VWBB-SYuX42FdwMVBM$ for graphic product...
