Concerning...Tornado Watch 311...

Valid 260507Z - 260630Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 311 continues.

SUMMARY...Tornadoes and very large hail possible across
south-central/southeast Kansas and far north-central Oklahoma for at
least the next hour.

DISCUSSION...Despite limited surface-based buoyancy and the presence
of convective inhibition, initially elevated convection has recently
trended towards more of a surface-based character across
south-central KS, likely aided intense low-level shear in the
region. Recent ICT VAD sampled over 700 m2/s2 of 0-1 km
storm-relative helicity. This intense low-level shear will likely
aid the updrafts in overcoming the convective inhibition in place,
potential allowing for the development of tornadic supercells. Very
large hail up to 3" will be possible as well.
