    Areas affected...Southeast MO...far southern IL...far western
    KY...and far northwest TN

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 311930Z - 312130Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Locally damaging gusts will be possible with a cluster of thunderstorms tracking southeastward.

    DISCUSSION...A loosely organized cluster of thunderstorms is
    tracking southeastward across southeastern MO, which has produced a
    few damaging gusts and small hail. Despite limited deep-layer shear
    (around 25-kt midlevel flow per regional VWP), warm/moist inflow and
    steepened lapse rates (around 2000 J/kg MLCAPE) will continue to
    maintain this activity as it continues southeastward along the CAPE
    gradient over the next couple hours. Locally damaging gusts will
    remain possible, but current thinking is that the overall severe
    risk will remain too limited for a watch.
