Isolated large hail and a few strong wind gusts will be possible. Weather watch issuance remains possible, although the severe threat is only expected to persist for a few more hours. DISCUSSION...The latest surface analysis shows a 987 mb low over far southwest Kansas, with an inverted surface trough extending north-northeastward from northwest Kansas into central Nebraska. Several linear-based storms are ongoing near the trough. In spite of surface dewpoints only in the mid to upper 40s F, the RAP has 500 to 750 J/kg of MLCAPE. The last WSR-88D VWP at Hastings has 30-35 knots of 0-6 km shear, and veering of the winds with height in the lowest 2 km. This should be enough to continue an isolated severe threat. Isolated large hail could occur with strongest of updrafts, along with a few marginally severe wind gusts. Also, a potential for a landspout tornado could continue along and near the eastern edge of the convection. ...Broyles/Guyer.. 03/24/2024 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!4I4AYjol6eyyrVyw-0xaGiO6ZPkrYEExevzN9vs2fkgPsMA3wz4u2c_Ku0QpSOXKNPV9CDSkN= kFnMUljkdDo0cAuW0Q$ for graphic product...
