   Mesoscale Discussion 1068
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0540 AM CDT Wed Jul 01 2020

   Areas affected...Portions of western/central MO

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible 

   Valid 011040Z - 011145Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

   SUMMARY...Some severe/damaging wind threat may persist with a line
   of storms this morning. Watch issuance is possible.

   DISCUSSION...A small but well-organized bow over near the Kansas
   City metro has produced a couple of measured severe wind gusts over
   the past couple of hours. There is some concern that this line may
   continue southeastward along an instability gradient this morning
   while continuing to produce isolated severe/damaging wind gusts.
   Large-scale forcing for ascent should remain weak as a southwesterly
   low-level jet gradually diminishes. But, cold pool dynamics and
   evidence of a rear-inflow jet within the line suggest that it may
   nonetheless continue into parts of central MO for at least the next
   few hours while posing a threat for isolated damaging winds. Watch
   issuance is possible, and current radar and environmental trends are
   being closely monitored.
