   ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
   THE SOUTHERN PLAINS...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Scattered severe thunderstorms with large hail and severe wind gusts
   should continue this evening and tonight over parts of the southern
   Plains.

   ...01Z Update...
   Primary corridor of severe hail/wind risk should remain confined to
   parts of the southern Plains this evening and tonight. Multiple
   supercells have developed across the TX Panhandle and far eastern NM
   in a low-level upslope flow regime. Modestly strengthening
   west-northwesterly winds at mid/upper levels will continue to
   support strong deep-layer shear of 40-50 kt this evening. Scattered
   large to potentially very large (2+ inches) will be a threat in the
   short term. There is also evidence of upscale growth already
   occurring across the northwestern TX Panhandle. This trend is
   expected to continue this evening and tonight, and a well-developed
   MCS should move southeastward across the southern High Plains and
   into parts of north/central TX later tonight into early Tuesday
   morning. Scattered strong to severe wind gusts will be the main
   threat once the storm mode becomes mainly linear. Significant severe
   gusts may occur this evening across parts of the TX Panhandle where
   a very well-mixed boundary layer will support efficient downdraft
   accelerations.

   Two separate clusters of storms are moving south-southeastward early
   this evening across south-central NE and northeastern KS along/ahead
   of a reinforcing cold front. Northwesterly winds strengthen through
   mid levels, and a marginally favorable thermodynamic environment may
   support isolated instances of strong/gusty winds for the next couple
   of hours. This isolated severe threat should diminish later this
   evening with the loss of daytime heating.

   Widespread convective overturning has occurred over much of IL
   today. The overall severe threat should continue to diminish over
   the Midwest this evening, but isolated strong to damaging winds may
   still occur in the short term near St. Louis, and across parts of IN
   and vicinity. 5% wind probabilities have been confined to locations
   along/ahead of ongoing storms where a marginal severe threat
   persists for another hour or so.

   Elsewhere, severe hail/wind probabilities have been removed across
   much of the Southeast, Mid-Atlantic, and south FL. Occasional gusty
   winds cannot be completely ruled out for the next hour or so with
   ongoing storms across these regions. Regardless, nocturnal cooling
   and a corresponding reduction in instability will result in a
   lessening severe risk through the rest of the evening.
