MD 0963 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 320… FOR EAST-CENTRAL CO INTO WESTERN KS
Mesoscale Discussion 0963 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1134 PM CDT Sat May 24 2025 Areas affected...East-central CO into western KS Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 320... Valid 250434Z - 250600Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 320 continues. SUMMARY...Strong to isolated severe storms will remain possible overnight. DISCUSSION...An earlier cluster of storms over east-central CO has weakened somewhat over the last hour, though persistent redevelopment is occurring along its southwest flank, and there is some indication that a weak MCV has formed in association with this convection. Convection will tend to remain elevated overnight as it spreads east-southeastward, but MUCAPE ranging from 500-1500 J/kg and sufficient deep-layer shear will continue to support occasionally organized storms and perhaps an elevated bowing cluster overnight, with a threat of at least isolated hail and strong/severe gusts. Additional elevated storms may eventually develop downstream of the ongoing cluster, within a low-level warm advection regime. These storms could also pose an isolated hail threat. With some severe potential expected to continue overnight, downstream watch issuance is possible. ..Dean/Mosier.. 05/25/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
