Damaging winds and QLCS tornadoes will be possible. DISCUSSION...Aided my the mid-level shortwave trough, a line of convection continues to the east-northeast in eastern Nebraska. This will likely continue into parts of western into central Iowa this evening. Dewpoints have risen into the low 60s F in the mid-Missouri Valley. Though overall destabilization has not been robust due to cloud cover, the upper-level forcing and continued moisture advection should promote some severe threat. Regional VAD profiles from KFSD/KOAX/KDMX show ample low-level shear in place. This shear should remain and increase as the low-level jet intensifies and moves east. Damaging winds and QLCS tornadoes will be possible. A tornado watch will likely be needed this evening. The primary uncertainty will be how far north/northwest the severe threat will be. ...Wendt/Guyer.. 05/06/2024 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!47P_TmoJPCkyzp5XeOJJNY0DiaUa5YSo-neXRl-7tDupReR-11xwoLTB_SXym_lK560abYCpL= GJDCDQGMEMFqjWkdGU$ for graphic product...
