   ...THERE IS A MDT RISK OF SVR TSTMS OVER MUCH OF MO...ERN KS...ERN
   OK...NW AR AND A SMALL PART OF SE NEB...
   
   ...THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS OVER REMAINING PARTS OF THE
   CNTRL AND SRN PLNS...
   
   ...SYNOPSIS...
   MAJOR PATTERN CHANGE WILL OCCUR DURING THE NEXT 24-36 HRS AS STRONG
   IMPULSE NOW OVER NRN CO EJECTS E INTO THE CNTRL PLNS/MID MS VLY. AT
   THE SAME TIME...NRN STREAM SPEED MAX NOW OVER SASKATCHEWAN/MANITOBA 
   EXPECTED TO ACCELERATE SEWD...AMPLIFYING EXISTING TROUGH OVER THE
   GRT LKS.
   
   WHILE THE PLNS IMPULSE WILL LIKELY REMAIN VERY COMPACT...MID LEVEL
   W/WNWLY FLOW WILL NEVERTHELESS INCREASE SUBSTANTIALLY ACROSS MUCH OF
   THE CNTRL AND SRN PLNS AS LARGE SCALE PATTERN AMPLIFIES.  THIS WILL
   SERVE TO STRENGTHEN DEEP SHEAR OVER THE CNTRL U.S. THROUGH THE
   PERIOD...AND DRIVE COLD FRONT NOW OVER WRN KS E TO THE MID MS/LWR OH
   VLY REGION BY 12Z SATURDAY.  AT THE SAME TIME...SURFACE LOW NOW OVER
   N CNTRL KS SHOULD TRACK GENERALLY E ALONG WAVY WARM FRONT INTO CNTRL
   IL.
   
   ...LWR MO TO MID MS VLY...
   SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP BY EARLY AFTERNOON INVOF
   SURFACE LOW/TRIPLE POINT OVER SE NEB/NE KS AS DIURNAL HEATING
   FURTHER DESTABILIZES REGION OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE INFLOW.  BOTH
   SATELLITE DATA AND MODEL GUIDANCE SUGGEST THAT MAIN AREA OF ASCENT
   ASSOCIATED WITH UPR IMPULSE WILL STILL BE W OF TRIPLE POINT AT THIS
   TIME.  RESULTING ABSENCE OF STRONG LINEAR FORCING...COUPLED WITH
   MODERATE /35-40 KT/ DEEP SWLY SHEAR AND STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE
   RATES...SHOULD SUPPORT SUPERCELLS WITH A GOOD POTENTIAL FOR VERY
   LARGE HAIL /AVERAGE MLCAPE TO 2000 J PER KG/.
   
   THE STORMS SHOULD MOVE/DEVELOP ESE ALONG NEARLY STATIONARY WARM
   FRONT ACROSS NRN/CNTRL MO A BIT LATER IN THE DAY...WHERE ENHANCED
   LOW LEVEL VORTICITY INVOF BOUNDARY AND EXPECTED STORM MOTION ROUGHLY
   PARALLEL TO IT MAY PROMOTE LOW LEVEL MESOCYCLOGENESIS AND A FEW
   TORNADOES.  OTHER STRONG/SEVERE STORMS MAY DEVELOP IN POCKET OF
   SURFACE-BASED INSTABILITY AND CONVERGENCE NEAR OLD OUTFLOW BOUNDARY
   IN ERN MO BY EARLY AFTERNOON.  MERGING OF THIS ACTIVITY WITH THAT
   ARRIVING FROM THE WNW...ALONG WITH INCREASING LARGE SCALE
   ASCENT...WILL LIKELY LEAD TO CONSOLIDATION INTO SEVERAL CLUSTERS OF
   STORMS THAT WILL CARRY AN ATTENDANT THREAT FOR HAIL AND PERHAPS HIGH
   WIND E INTO IL TONIGHT.
   
   ...DRY LINE ERN KS/SW MO SWD INTO CNTRL AND NE TX...
   MORE WIDELY SCATTERED SUPERCELLS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP A BIT LATER IN
   THE DAY SWD ALONG DRY LINE INTO TX AS SURFACE HEATING OVERCOMES CAP
   NOW IN PLACE.  SATELLITE DATE SUGGEST THAT MUCH OF THIS CORRIDOR
   WILL INDEED EXPERIENCE STRONG HEATING. IN ADDITION... OUTFLOW FROM
   YESTERDAY'S DRY LINE ACTIVITY SEEMS TO BE CONFINED TO PARTS OF NRN
   OK/CNTRL KS.  COUPLED WITH INCREASING WLY FLOW ALOFT THAT WILL
   GRADUALLY LENGTHEN HODOGRAPHS AND KEEP DEEP SHEAR FAIRLY
   PERPENDICULAR TO DRY LINE...SETUP SHOULD SUPPORT A FEW LONG-LIVED
   SUPERCELLS.  FAIRLY MOIST BOUNDARY LAYER AND STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE
   RATES WILL BE FAVORABLE FOR VERY LARGE HAIL AND POSSIBLY A COUPLE
   TORNADOES.
   
   ...VA/NC...
   A FEW STRONG DIURNAL STORMS MAY FORM IN ENVIRONMENT OF STEEP LOW TO
   MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES ALONG THE LEE SLOPES OF THE VA/NC
   MOUNTAINS...AND INVOF COLD FRONT/LEE TROUGH.  LIGHT TO MODERATE
   /20-25 KT/ LARGELY UNIDIRECTIONAL WNWLY MEAN FLOW MAY ALLOW FOR
   ORGANIZATION INTO SHORT BANDS...AND POSSIBLY A LIMITED THREAT FOR
   DAMAGING WIND AND MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL.
