Areas affected...southwest KS

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 580...

Valid 140023Z - 140130Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 580
continues.

SUMMARY...Corridor with widespread 60-75mph gusts expected near the
bow apex for the next 0.5-2 hours.

DISCUSSION...Radar mosaic/10km CAPPI shows a mature bow moving to
the south-southeast between 35-40kt with a few more intense cores
located near the apex of the bow.  Instrument-measured observations
during the past hour have sampled gusts generally in the 60-75mph
range.  The 00z Dodge City raob showed weak flow in the lowest 6km
but veering with height resulting in around 25kt effective shear. 
However, steep 0-3km lapse rates (8 degrees C/km) and the mature bow
with a well-defined rear-inflow jet, will probably result in a
continued risk for widespread severe gusts ranging in the 60-75mph
range near the apex of the bow.  The bow will move towards the Dodge
City vicinity during the next 1-1.5 hours prior to 9pm CDT.
