   Areas affected...Portions of the southern/central High Plains

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible 

   Valid 231936Z - 232130Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

   SUMMARY...Isolated thunderstorms could pose a risk for large hail
   and damaging winds into this evening. Watch issuance could be
   needed.

   DISCUSSION...A few strong/severe storms have developed near the
   Palmer Divide eastward into northwest Kansas this afternoon, amidst
   an environment characterized by favorable effective shear, but
   modest boundary-layer moisture (e.g., upper 40s/lower 50s dew
   points). Still, sufficient mixed-layer buoyancy exists for isolated
   multicells/splitting supercells, capable of large hail and damaging
   winds. If a few cells continue to organize and evolve southeastward
   into improved storm-relative flow and higher dew points, an
   increasing severe threat would likely evolve, perhaps in the form of
   a small convective complex. As such, convective trends are being
   monitored for possible watch issuance.
