   ...THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
   FAR SOUTHERN KS INTO NORTHWESTERN OK...

   ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
   CENTRAL/EASTERN NEB INTO WESTERN/NORTHERN IA...FAR SOUTHEASTERN
   MN...AND FAR WEST-CENTRAL WI...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Numerous severe storms will continue this evening into tonight,
   mainly across portions of southern Kansas, the far eastern Texas
   Panhandle, and western/central Oklahoma. Numerous damaging wind
   gusts and isolated large hail should remain the primary threats.

   ...01Z Update...
   Primary severe threat should remain focused across southern KS into
   parts of western/central OK this evening with an ongoing MCS.
   Multiple measured severe wind gusts producing damaging have been
   reported with this convection, and current expectations are for this
   bow to move quickly south-southeastward along an instability
   gradient across western/central OK this evening and tonight. A
   south-southwesterly low-level jet is forecast to strengthen this
   evening across the southern High Plains, which should support
   scattered to numerous severe wind gusts for at least the next few
   hours, mainly across the far eastern TX Panhandle into northwestern
   OK. Isolated large hail may also occur, particularly with any
   embedded supercell on the southwestern flank of the line. There is
   some potential for at least isolated damaging winds to continue late
   tonight into early Monday morning across southern OK and parts of
   north TX. Have therefore expanded 15% severe wind probabilities and
   corresponding Slight Risk southward across this area.

   Farther north, convection has struggled to intensify along a weak
   front in central/eastern NE. This may be related to earlier
   convection limiting the degree of diurnal heating and related
   instability. An isolated hail/wind risk may continue in the short
   term across this region (see Mesoscale Discussion 961), but
   continued nocturnal cooling of the boundary layer should result in a
   gradually diminishing severe threat across NE.

   Mainly an isolated strong to severe wind threat may continue for
   another couple hours across north-central/northeastern IA into far
   western WI with a small cluster. These storms should weaken with
   eastward extent across WI as instability gradually lessens.

   Elsewhere, occasional strong/gusty winds capable of producing mainly
   tree damage may occur for another hour or two with ongoing
   convection across parts of the lower MS Valley.
