Areas affected...parts of northern Oklahoma into southeast Kansas

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

Valid 302200Z - 010030Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...Scattered storms may persist from parts of central into
northern Oklahoma and southeast Kansas. A storm or two may exhibit
rotation with a brief/weak tornado not out of the question.

DISCUSSION...Scattered storms have developed within within the warm
sector from northern TX across central OK, with additional activity
extending into east-central KS. While the primary large-scale lift
will remain to the north of these areas, south/southwest 850 mb
winds are forecast to increase to over 40 kt this evening.
Currently, the TLX VWP shows 0-1 SRH around 125 m2/s2, with larger
values farther north to 300 m2/s2 at ICT.

Given a few hours of scattered storms within this corridor, and
areas of stronger low-level shear (especially into KS), a brief
tornado cannot be ruled out if a more robust cell can develop.
