    Areas affected...Northern and Central Illinois...far southern
    Wisconsin

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 060209Z - 060345Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...A severe thunderstorm watch will be considered for
    portions of northern and central Illinois. Strong wind fields will
    support damaging wind gusts despite weaker thermodynamics.

    DISCUSSION...Strengthening 850 mb winds have been observed by
    regional VWP with winds reaching 50-60 kts. Cooling aloft and modest
    moisture transport into Illinois and southern Wisconsin should
    support areas of increasing, but weak, buoyancy this evening. As
    convection moves eastward out of Iowa, the trend in storm mode is
    expected to become more linear. At present, a line of storms nearing
    the Mississippi River in southeastern Iowa has shown an increase in
    linear organization and has had measured severe winds within the
    last hour. While there are some uncertainties as to how organized
    this activity remains, even modest buoyancy is expected to support
    severe wind gust potential given the strong wind fields just a above
    the surface. Brief tornadoes within QLCS circulations are possible,
    but are not expected to be the main threat. A severe thunderstorm
    watch is possible later this evening.

    Areas affected...much of Missouri and adjacent portions of southeast Iowa...western Illinois...northern Arkansas

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 270743Z - 270845Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...A line of thunderstorms overspreading the region will
    continue pose a risk for at least localized severe wind gusts
    through the night. While the sporadic nature of this threat
    probably will preclude a severe weather watch issuance, trends will
    continue to be monitored.

    DISCUSSION...An intense, cyclonic mid-level jet (110+ kt around 500
    mb) is forecast to continue rapidly propagating east-northeastward
    into and through the Ozark Plateau vicinity. Strengthening
    subsidence to the south and southwest of the speed maximum is now
    suppressing deep convective development to the southwest (roughly)
    of the Missouri/Kansas/Arkansas border vicinity. Pre-cold frontal
    lightning producing convection is being maintained on the leading
    edge of the large-scale mid-level ascent/cold core, which is
    forecast to rapidly spread across much Missouri and parts of
    adjacent Iowa and Arkansas into western Illinois through 11-12Z.

    While the boundary-layer across much of this region remains only
    modestly moist (rising through the 50s F), beneath a northeastward
    advecting warm layer around the 700 mb level, models do indicate
    some further moistening within the warm sector of the deep occluding
    cyclone is possible prior to the arrival of the cold front. Based
    on latest Rapid Refresh forecast soundings, strong forcing through
    the capping layer may continue to yield very weak boundary-layer destabilization just ahead of the convective line. It is not clear
    that this will be able to support much in the way of substantive intensification from what is ongoing now. However, given the
    intense nature of the mean lower/mid-tropospheric wind fields within
    which the convection is embedded (greater than 60 kt in the lowest
    60 km AGL), the heavier precipitation cores probably will continue
    to aid the downward transfer of potentially damaging gusts to the
    surface.

    Areas affected...northern Oklahoma and southern Kansas

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 30...

    Valid 080037Z - 080200Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 30
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Severe threat continues within WW30. Isolated tornado
    potential near the OK/KS border.

    DISCUSSION...Storm activity is ongoing across northern Oklahoma into
    southern Kansas along an eastward advancing dry line and warm front
    draped across southern Kansas. Two supercells located along surface
    warm front have shown better organization as they move eastward into
    dew points in the upper 50s. A narrow corridor near the warm front
    may support risk of an isolated tornado before storms cross to the
    cool side of the boundary, given enhanced vorticity along the front.
    Further west along the dry line, storms will likely cluster and
    attempt to grow up scale as the cold front moves east eventually
    overtaking the dry line. The main threats will likely be wind and
    hail with the linear storm modes.
