   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 486...

   Valid 292336Z - 300100Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 486
   continues.

   SUMMARY...The severe threat continues across Severe Thunderstorm
   Watch 486. Severe wind and hail remain the primary threats. The best
   chance for severe wind/hail in the near-term exists with a cluster
   of storms along the KS/OK border

   DISCUSSION...Several thunderstorm clusters have developed along the
   cold front, with a mature, dominant cluster progressing across
   southeast KS toward OK. This cluster has a history of large hail and
   severe gusts, and these storms continue to track southward into a
   strongly unstable airmass. As such, additional instances of severe
   wind and hail should continue with this cluster over the next
   several hours. These storms may progress just south of the WW 486
   bounds, potentially necessitating the need of an additional
   downstream Severe Thunderstorm Watch issuance. There is also a
   slight chance for storms to initiate along a stationary boundary
   across extreme northern Arkansas. Should this occur, multicells may
   result, posing a threat of severe wind and hail.
