Valid 040155Z - 040330Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 502, 504 continues. SUMMARY...Strong to severe wind gusts of 50-70 mph along with marginal hail from 0.75-1.25 inches in diameter will remain possible over the next couple hours across parts of northwest to north-central Kansas and south-central Nebraska. An additional severe thunderstorm watch farther east appears unlikely. DISCUSSION...A recent uptick in the trailing portion of a predominately non-severe QLCS occurred in far southwest NE, yielding a measured severe gust of 55 kts at the McCook ASOS. This portion of the line appears likely to merge with a more north/south-oriented cluster over northwest KS which has produced a measured strong gust of 46 kts at the Colby AWOS. The thermodynamic environment immediately downstream is still favorable for occasional intensification during the next hour or so. But towards 04-05Z, the combination of increasing MLCIN and diminishing buoyancy with eastern extent suggests the severe wind threat should wane east of north-central KS. ...Grams.. 07/04/2024 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!9pWELq0NfKPfbUzMsQHUM4CJg-6BukQydjR5_3XunWZ7qpus74DkinVppPwX2_-wudjFU3cB2= Ps9rRCCn2Pjtdj_iO0$ for graphic product...
