   AREAS AFFECTED...EASTERN/SOUTHERN NEBRASKA AND FAR NORTHERN KANSAS

   CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 164...

   VALID 110213Z - 110345Z

   THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 164
   CONTINUES.

   SUMMARY...SEVERE THREAT CONTINUES IN THE WATCH AREA...ALTHOUGH A
   SLIGHT WEAKENING TREND HAS BEEN NOTED WITH A FEW OF THE STORMS IN
   THE WATCH OVER THE PAST HOUR.

   DISCUSSION...CONTINUE WW 164.  A CLUSTER OF STORMS HAS EVOLVED
   PRIMARILY IN EASTERN NEBRASKA.  THESE STORMS APPEAR TO BE SLIGHTLY
   ELEVATED...UNDERCUT FROM OUTFLOWS RESULTING FROM EARLIER CONVECTION
   ACROSS THE REGION.  LATEST OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS AND RAP POINT FORECAST
   SOUNDINGS SUGGEST THAT WEAK MID-LEVEL INSTABILITY AND ASCENT
   ASSOCIATED WITH A WEAK SHORTWAVE WEST OF THE REGION IS SUSTAINING
   THIS ACTIVITY.  THE STRONGEST STORMS MAY PRODUCE INSTANCES OF 1-1.5
   INCH HAIL AND PERHAPS A FEW WIND GUSTS APPROACHING SEVERE
   LIMITS...ALTHOUGH THE OBSERVED WEAKENING TREND SHOULD CONTINUE WITH
   TIME.

   CONVECTION HAS REMAINED MOSTLY NORTH OF THE SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE
   WATCH THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.  LATER INTO THE EVENING...THE INCREASE
   OF A SOUTHERLY LOW-LEVEL JET MAY RESULT IN A FEW STORMS PRODUCING
   MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL...ALTHOUGH THE BULK OF THIS IS EXPECTED TO
   OCCUR PRIMARILY AFTER 06Z.
