Large hail and damaging winds would be the primary threats. DISCUSSION...Tied to a lead shortwave trough in the central Plains, cumulus have been deepening along a dryline in central Kansas. Despite somewhat limited moisture (dewpoints in the upper 50s F), surface heating and forcing from the trough may promote storm initiation within the next 1-3 hours. Steep mid-level lapse rates and 40-45 kts of effective shear orthogonal to the dryline would promote discrete storms capable of large hail and strong/damaging winds. Low-level hodograph curvature is sufficient for some low-level rotation and potentially a brief tornado, but a generally dry boundary layer will likely limit that threat. ...Wendt/Smith.. 03/29/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!5_WsuObXXo4wqgFbD1w-XpAG_qcGuFPz0qNEu64X-nuMe27niq0PRQ9Ty766Bx_EMa88o3uN7= iVuZdZTTCMej94r64w$ for graphic product...
