   Mesoscale Discussion 0733
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   1036 PM CDT Mon May 25 2020

   Areas affected...Far Southeast Kansas...Southwest Missouri

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 228...

   Valid 260336Z - 260430Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 228
   continues.

   SUMMARY...An isolated severe threat is expected to continue for
   another hour or so across far southeast Kansas and southwest
   Missouri. Wind damage would be the main hazard. Weather watch
   issuance is not expected beyond the 05Z expiration of WW 228.

   DISCUSSION...Radar imagery shows a line of strong thunderstorms
   moving northward across far southwest Missouri. Surface dewpoints in
   the mid to upper 60s F has maintained weak instability ahead of the
   line. In addition, the WSR-88D VWP at Springfield, Missouri has 45
   kt of 0-6 km shear with directional shear in the lowest 2 km AGL.
   This may be enough for a wind damage threat with small rotating
   storms. As instability weakens further over next couple hours, the
   threat is expected to diminish.
