...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM NORTHEAST
KANSAS INTO NORTHERN MISSOURI AND SOUTHERN IOWA...

...SUMMARY...
A few storms may produce hail on Thursday from far northeast Kansas
across northern Missouri and into southern Iowa.

...Synopsis and Discussion...
On Thursday, a progressive upper trough will move from the central
and northern Rockies into the Plains, as upper ridging briefly
develops from the OH Valley into the Northeast. High pressure will
be in place over much of the East in the wake of the previous days
cold front, providing generally stable conditions there.

In association with the Rockies/Plains trough, a cold front will
push quickly southeastward across the northern and central Plains,
extending roughly from MN into the TX Panhandle by 00Z. Modest
boundary-layer moistening will occur with dewpoints in the low to
mid 50s F as far north as southwest IA.

As the cold front interacts with the narrow plume of instability, at
least isolated surface-based storms are anticipated during the late
afternoon, trending toward elevated through the evening, from
northeast KS into northern MO and IA. Forecast soundings show
steepening lapse rates aloft along with veering winds with height,
suggesting a supercell, even if elevated, may occur, with hail risk.
The favored zone for initiation will be the KS portion of the cold
front where low-level lapse rates will be steepest. Overall, the
main limiting factor for this event will be moisture quality as lift
and shear will be favorable.
