   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 152...

   Valid 290206Z - 290330Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 152
   continues.

   SUMMARY...A few strong/damaging wind gusts will remain possible with
   the convective line within WW 152. The greatest wind threat will be
   with the more organized linear segment moving east in south-central
   Missouri. This activity will eventually move into WW 153.

   DISCUSSION...A line of strong to occasionally severe storms
   continues across southeast Missouri and central Illinois.
   Strong/damaging wind gusts have become the primary hazard associated
   with this line of convection. A longer-lived and more organized
   bowing segment now withing Howell and Texas Counties in Missouri has
   continued to produced severe wind reports periodically. These gusts
   are being driven by cold-pool dynamics as well as several
   mesovortices. This activity will likely continue towards the
   Missouri Bootheel before beginning to diminish in the presence of
   much weaker buoyancy and increasing inhibition. This will take it
   into northeastern parts of WW 153. In Illinois, the downstream
   environment will more quickly become less supportive of convection.
   No downstream WW is planned for this section of the line of
   thunderstorms.
