...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST...

...SUMMARY...
A few strong storms are possible today from west Texas to Missouri.
However, the overall severe risk appears minimal.

...MO to west TX...
Scattered convection is ongoing from eastern KS to western OK in
association with a minor shortwave impulse which will continue east
today. Downstream destabilization will be curtailed by extensive
clouds/rain. With only modest deep-layer shear, severe storms appear
unlikely but a locally strong wind gust might accompany convection
around peak heating in the MO vicinity.

Farther west/southwest, greater diabatic heating is anticipated in
the wake of morning convection. However, convergence along residual
outflow boundaries and the dryline should remain weak owing to a
lack of appreciable large-scale ascent in a zonal and moderate flow
regime aloft. CAMs suggest negligible to isolated development, the
latter appearing more probable in parts of west TX. While a strong
storm or two is possible, the probabilistic coverage of severe
wind/hail appears below 5 percent this outlook.
