Areas affected...much of western Kansas into southeast Colorado

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

Valid 271815Z - 272045Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

SUMMARY...A few severe storms may develop this afternoon near the
front from southeast Colorado into parts of western Kansas, with
large hail the primary threat.

DISCUSSION...Surface analysis shows low pressure over southwest KS,
with a dryline near the OK/TX Panhandle border. A prominent surface
front stretches from southeast CO across west-central KS, with a few
storms already near the central to northeast KS portion of the
front.

Substantial storms are ongoing from northwest OK into south-central
KS near ICT, and this activity has produced outflow which is
affecting destabilization over central KS currently. However,
further heating will likely lead to sufficient instability to
support a few severe storms capable of hail. Northeast surface winds
north of the front will further aid deep-layer shear, and
potentially support left-moving storms with hail potential.
