DESPITE ANOTHER ROUND OF MORNING TSTMS OVER PORTIONS OF THE
CENTRAL/SRN PLAINS EARLY SAT...THE INGREDIENTS APPEAR TO BE COMING
TOGETHER FOR A SUBSTANTIAL SEVERE WEATHER EVENT ACROSS THE

DIFFERENCES EXIST AMONGST LATEST GUIDANCE...THERE IS GENERAL
AGREEMENT ON HEIGHT FALLS/DCVA OVERSPREADING A VERY MOIST WARM
SECTOR /SFC DEW POINTS 65 TO NEAR 70/ AHEAD OF A DRYLINE EXTENDING
FROM SWRN KS SWD INTO W TX. 50-60 KTS OF SWLY 500 MB FLOW WILL
ROTATE AROUND THE UPPER LOW AND ACROSS OK/KS AS A SFC LOW TAKES
SHAPE OVER SWRN KS BY EARLY EVENING. SVR TSTMS WILL LIKELY DEVELOP
ALONG THE DRYLINE AND NEAR THE SFC LOW/WARM FRONT DURING THE AFTN IN
AN ENVIRONMENT FAVORABLE FOR SUPERCELLS WITH ALL SEVERE HAZARDS
POSSIBLE. STORMS SHOULD EVENTUALLY EVOLVE INTO CLUSTERS OR LINES
WITH A CONTINUED SVR THREAT OVERNIGHT.
