    Areas affected...Northeast Kansas

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

    Valid 132305Z - 140000Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...There is the potential for a tornadic supercell this
    evening, but storm longevity is in question.

    DISCUSSION...Some supercell structures have been noted with a storm
    that formed earlier southwest of Emporia, though this storm has
    struggled some to maintain intensity. More recent attempts at
    updrafts south-through-west of this initial storm could lead to
    mergers and some potential for a sufficiently large/deep storm to
    take advantage of the downstream environment. If a sustained storm
    emerges over northeast KS the next 1-2 hours, downstream dewpoints
    in the upper 60s and enlarging low-level hodographs this evening
    will support tornado potential in addition to large hail. This area
    will continue to be monitored closely for a possible/small tornado
    watch.
