   Areas affected...Southeast Nebraska...Southwest Iowa...Far Northwest
   Missouri

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 325...

   Valid 131303Z - 131500Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 325
   continues.

   SUMMARY...A threat for isolated large hail and severe wind gusts
   will likely continue over the next couple of hours from southeast
   Nebraska into southwest Iowa and far northwest Missouri. As the
   storms move toward the edge of Watch 325, additional watch issuance
   will likely need to be considered.

   DISCUSSION...The latest high-resolution radar imagery shows a strong
   line segment ongoing to the west of Omaha. The line is located at
   the northern end of a pocket of moderate instability, analyzed by
   the RAP from northeastern Kansas into southeastern Nebraska. MLCAPE
   within this corridor is estimated to be in the 2000 to 2500 J/kg
   range. In addition, the RAP shows a plume of steep mid-level lapse
   rates (in the 7.5 to 8.5 C/km range) extending eastward from
   northwest Kansas into southeast Nebraska. This environment will
   continue to support an isolated large hail threat this morning. In
   addition, a potential will exist for isolated severe gusts, and this
   threat could increase if the line can become more organized. The
   threat may tend to move more southeastward into far northwest
   Missouri, favoring the eastern edge of the stronger instability.
