   Day 1 Convective Outlook  
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

   Valid 110100Z - 111200Z

   ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM SOUTHERN
   SD INTO CENTRAL NE...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Severe thunderstorms will remain possible for much of tonight across
   portions of the northern and central Great Plains. Large hail and
   damaging wind are the primary threats.

   ...Northern/central Plains...
   Multiple supercell clusters ongoing at 01Z across the
   northern/central Plains are expected to persist for a few hours this
   evening, with a continued risk of large hail and damaging wind. The
   intense long-lived cluster moving into north-central KS should
   eventually weaken as it encounters an environment that has been
   stabilized by earlier widespread convection over southern KS and OK.
   Further north, in closer proximity to a midlevel shortwave trough,
   ongoing clusters will likely be longer lived as they move
   southeastward with time. Upscale growth into a larger MCS remains
   possible into central/eastern NE late tonight, though the
   southeastward extent of the severe threat into parts of eastern
   KS/western MO remains uncertain, due to the aforementioned
   stabilizing influence of earlier convection to the south. 

   ...Southern New England...
   Deep convection is largely absent this evening in association with
   Tropical Storm Fay. While low-level flow/shear north and east of the
   center remains sufficient to support a conditional threat of a brief
   tornado or locally damaging wind gust, this threat will remain quite
   limited given the lack of deeper convection.
