Areas affected...Southeast Nebraska southeastward into central
Illinois
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 379...380...
Valid 170829Z - 171030Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 379, 380
continues.
SUMMARY...The threat for isolated large hail and thunderstorm winds
to 60 mph will continue through the morning.
DISCUSSION...Two main areas of severe thunderstorm potential remain
this morning: one across southeast Nebraska and northeast Kansas and
another across northeast Missouri into central Illinois.=20
Across southeast Nebraska and northeast Kansas, thunderstorms
continue to redevelop within a warm-air advection regime. These
thunderstorms are being fed within a CAPE reservoir in excess of
3000 J/kg and effective-layer shear around 30 knots. RAP
point-forecast soundings indicate these storms are originating just
above the 850-mb level, and tapping into mid-level lapse rates
around 7 C/km. Given the elevated nature of the thunderstorms and
modest lapse rates, the primary concern with these thunderstorms
will be severe hail around 1-1.5 inches in diameter. The severe
threat here may locally persist past the expiration of Severe
Thunderstorm Watch 379, however, the localized nature of the threat
should not require a new watch.
To the southeast, across northeast Missouri and eventually into
central Illinois, a well-organized cluster of thunderstorms
continues to move east-southeast. The atmosphere along and ahead of
these thunderstorms is extremely unstable, with CAPE values in
excess of 4000 J/kg estimated by modified RAP soundings. However,
unlike areas to the northwest, effective-layer shear is considerably
less along and ahead of these thunderstorms, decreasing to less than
20 knots across central Illinois. The well-organized nature of the
existing thunderstorms and the extreme instability should compensate
somewhat for the weak effective-layer shear resulting in a continued
severe threat for the next few hours, with the primary concern being
wind gusts around 60 mph and hail around 1 inch. Recent measured
wind gusts across northeast Missouri of around 55 mph bear this out.
The severe threat across Severe Thunderstorm Watch 380 will continue
through the morning.
