    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 112...

    Valid 041206Z - 041400Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 112
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The risk for severe hail is expected to lessen with time
    as an evolving cluster of thunderstorms overspreads southern into
    central Missouri through 9-11 AM CDT. A new severe weather watch
    probably will not be needed, but trends will continue to be
    monitored.

    DISCUSSION...Rapid east-northeastward progression of the
    lower/mid-tropospheric forcing for ascent and associated stronger
    convective development, near the leading edge of northward returning
    plume of elevated mixed layer air, continues. Through 14-16Z, the
    primary clustering of thunderstorm activity appears likely to
    overspread areas near and south of the Missouri Interstate 44
    corridor, toward the Greater St. Louis vicinity. This is getting
    further removed from the stalled, sharp surface frontal zone now
    across/just south of the Memphis through Texarkana vicinities.=20
    However, models suggest that moisture return above the cold
    surface-based air is maintaining inflow of air characterized by CAPE
    in excess of 1000 J/kg.=20=20=20

    With convection continuing to consolidate into less discrete
    elements the risk for severe hail seems likely to lessen with
    northeastward progression. A few gusts approaching severe limits
    have recently been observed to the southeast of Tulsa. However,
    barring the development of a more substantive surface pressure
    perturbation, which may not be out of the question, but seems low in probability, the risk for severe surface gusts probably will not
    increase.
