AREAS AFFECTED...SERN NEB AND NRN KS

CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 720...

VALID 082042Z - 082215Z

THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED TO INCREASE IN NUMBER AND INTENSITY ACROSS
EXTREME SERN NEB AND NRN KS DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS.

STORMS HAVE DEVELOPED IN THE PAST HALF HOUR FROM 30 EAST OF LNK TO
20 SE HSI. THESE STORMS ARE LOCATED ALONG SURFACE BOUNDARY WHICH IS
MOVING SLOWLY SWD INTO NRN KS. MLCAPES NEAR 2500 J/KG AND STRONG
DIRECTIONAL SHEAR SHOULD AID THESE STORMS IN INTENSIFYING TO SEVERE
LEVELS AS THEY MOVE SWD ALONG THE BOUNDARY. OTHER STORMS ALSO
DEVELOP NEAR CNK WHERE SATELLITE IMAGERY SUGGESTS LOCALIZED 
CONVERGENCE IS INCREASING IN THIS AREA. ALTHOUGH SEVERE HAIL APPEARS
TO BE THE MAIN THREAT...THE STORM UPDRAFTS ALONG THE BOUNDARY MAY BE
CONSOLIDATE INTO A LINEAR SYSTEM...WHICH WOULD ENHANCE THE WIND
THREAT.
