Mesoscale Discussion 0699
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0120 AM CDT Sun May 24 2020
Areas affected...central NE
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 215...
Valid 240620Z - 240715Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 215
continues.
SUMMARY...A focused corridor of severe gusts in the 60-80 mph range
is possible with an evolving bow during the 115am-245am CDT period.
DISCUSSION...Radar mosaic during the past hour shows a squall line
moving east at 40-45 kt across the NE Sandhills. This squall line
has recently overtaken a supercell ahead of the line. The likely
evolution of the supercell to bow will occur through 2am CDT.
Surface observations ahead of bow show temperatures near 70 deg F
and surface dewpoints in the lower-mid 60s. The steep 700-500mb
lapse rates (8 deg C/km) sampled on the 7pm CDT Omaha observed
sounding will likely contribute to longevity of the bow as it moves
into eastern NE during the next several hours. As this occurs, the
initial evolution of the supercell to bow will likely yield the
greatest risk for 60-80 mph gusts in a relatively focused corridor.
