   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 73...

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 73
   continues.

   SUMMARY...Strong/severe thunderstorms continue across central
   Kansas.

   DISCUSSION...Diffluent high-level flow ahead of approaching upper
   trough remains favorable for venting convection aloft. Earlier
   prefrontal convection has matured into an MCS that is propagating
   across central KS. Leading edge of this complex is bowing east in
   excess of 30kt, with a trailing flank that becomes more discrete
   northwest of Medicine Lodge in Pratt/Barber County. Over the last
   hour or so, stronger hail cores have weakened, though some large
   hail threat remains with the southern-most convection. With outflow
   now sagging up to 30 miles south of the MCS, the primary risk for
   severe appears to be shifting to the southern portions of ww73.
