Watch issuance is possible if storm coverage and intensity continue to increase. DISCUSSION...Storm intensity has recently increased along the periphery of a large storm cluster, with isolated supercells recently noted north of St. Louis and northwest of Paducah, and a small outflow surge southwest of St. Louis. Ongoing storms are likely somewhat elevated, but with rich low-level moisture in place, diurnal heating may aid in a transition to surface-based convection, with an attendant potential increase in storm intensity.=20 Midlevel lapse rates are not overly steep, with modestly warm temperatures aloft, but any sustained supercell could pose some hail threat. Locally damaging winds will also be a risk, though the potential for organized upscale growth may be limited in the short term. The need for watch issuance through mid morning is uncertain, due to uncertainty regarding the short-term coverage of the severe threat, but remains possible if storm coverage and intensity continues to increase. ...Dean/Gleason.. 07/20/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!6MVw3O3nSzDTRAqRfW-KPCxCR703cTsTe1XrOespr3Gha-wOzu-V3JA0QqzLw62CfdJ6cYQpq= 4Quc3gEQCc2AEzfX8A$ for graphic product...
