Areas affected...eastern Missouri into southern Illinois

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

Valid 301856Z - 302100Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

SUMMARY...Severe potential is increasing this afternoon across
eastern Missouri into southern Illinois. Area is being monitored for
possible watch issuance downstream from Severe Thunderstorm Watch
568. Damaging winds may accompany any storms that develop into this
evening.

DISCUSSION...While the earlier organized cluster of storms across
Iowa has largely dissipated, some re-intensification on the southern
flank has been noted across west-central IL over the past 30 minutes
or so. Additional convection has developed near the intersection of
outflow boundaries across northern MO. The downstream airmass across east-central MO into southern IL is characterized by temperatures
near 90 F and dewpoints in the mid/upper 70s F beneath steep
midlevel lapse rates. This is contributing to a corridor of moderate
to strong instability, with the gradient of stronger instability
oriented northwest to southeast from northern MO into southern IL.
This should support robust thunderstorm updrafts given greater than
40 kt effective shear magnitudes.=20

Uncertainty remains regarding convective coverage and evolution
given previous rounds of convection. However, the overall
environment should support severe gust potential with any convection
that develops. This area is being monitored for watch issuance
within the next couple of hours.
