A combination of cell-mergers and some localized cell-training may lead to isolated areas of flash flooding. DISCUSSION...GOES-E IR satellite imagery shows expanding clusters of cold-topped convection across the central High Plains, with multiple supercells and some linear-mode activity impacting southeast CO, southwest KS and down into the TX/OK Panhandles. The convection is organizing in a moderately unstable and sheared environment with MLCAPE values of 1000 to 2000 J/kg and effective bulk shear values of as much as 40 to 50+ kts. Digging shortwave energy across the central High Plains is providing divergent flow aloft with DPVA in place, and this coupled with favorable thermodynamics and a nocturnally enhanced low-level jet overrunning a warm front should favor additional expansion and organization of convective clusters over the next few hours. The latest experimental WoFS along with multiple 18Z HREF members suggest cell-merger activity gradually favoring a more progressive MCS across the region with a southwest to northeast orientation by late this evening. This MCS evolution, which will involve a continued concern for some supercell activity, will drop southeastward across southwest to south-central KS and eventually well down across northwest OK which will include impacts also still across the TX/OK Panhandles. Rainfall rates with the stronger supercells may reach 1.5 to 2 inches/hour, with some storm totals locally of 2 to 4 inches where a combination of any cell-mergers or brief cell-training occurs. Aside from the ongoing severe weather hazards, there may be a sufficient rainfall component to drive an isolated threat for flash flooding over the next several hours.
