Valid 292228Z - 300000Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 478 continues. SUMMARY...A thunderstorm cluster and associated cold pool will spread southward toward northwest Arkansas, and additional storm development is possible along the trailing outflow boundary into southeast Kansas. DISCUSSION...A thunderstorm cluster produced an outflow gust of 55 kt at Springfield MO in the past 30 minutes, and local radar radar suggest a continuation of the severe-wind threat to the southeast of Springfield. The storms will likely be strongest near and just northeast of the merger of two cold pools across Christian/Taney County, and the larger-scale cold pool will continue southward into northwest AR by 2230-23z. Strong buoyancy is present south of the ongoing storms where vertical shear is weak, so the cluster will tend toward more outflow dominance over time. In the interim, a few severe gusts will be possible and could spread a little south of the watch into AR, though the need for a downstream watch is uncertain. Farther west, some convection is attempting to deepen along the northwest edge of the cold pool, coincident with a small/remnant MCV from near and just north of Wichita KS. Surface temperatures in the low 90s with dewpoints near or above 70 F are supporting MLCAPE in excess of 3000 J/kg with minimal convective inhibition. Isolated severe storm development may occur in the next 1-2 hours as the MCV interacts with the outflow boundary, in an environment with marginally sufficient vertical shear for semi-organized clusters and/or some marginal supercell structure. The watch may need to be extended in area by a tier of counties to the west if the KS convection shows signs of intensification. ...Thompson.. 06/29/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!6wB_EtjfWmfz2rjj_IgNMaIPJP1ANXgc1FZIvNIbDW-f7dFy4rPA9VMvgrtB0hDUqgMIZyX7h= XLruo7s-6A2mzHFbcI$ for graphic product...
