...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS SOUTHERN
AND SOUTHEASTERN ILLINOIS...

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS
NORTHEASTERN NEW MEXICO...SOUTHEASTERN COLORADO...AND ADJACENT AREAS
OF THE OKLAHOMA AND TEXAS PANHANDLES...

...SUMMARY...
Severe storms remain possible this evening across parts of
southeastern Illinois and vicinity, with damaging winds, large hail,
and a few tornadoes possible. Other severe storms are expected
across the south-central High Plains this afternoon and evening.

...01Z Outlook Update...
Much of the outlook has been updated per latest convective trends. 
There still remains enough potential for a concentration of severe
reports in southern/southeastern Illinois ahead of a quasi-linear
MCS to support an Enhanced risk (driven by 30% wind probabilities)
in that area.  Northern portions of the MCS will eventually reach
more stable air over Indiana which should gradually lessen the
severe threat in that area.  Meanwhile, low-level shear is maximized
across south-central Illinois and vicinity, and a few cells may have
a tendency to rotate and produce a couple of tornadoes.  These
storms may also persist slightly longer into the night with moderate
instability downstream over a broader area near the Ohio River.

Farther south, convective overturning has led to a greatly
diminished severe threat over much of Alabama and western Georgia. 
A few cells from northeastern Mississippi through southeastern
Louisiana are still thriving on a moderately to strongly unstable
airmass and may result in sporadic wind/tree damage in a few areas. 
5%/Marginal wind probabilities have been reconfigured to address the
threat in these areas.

Farther west, a couple of linear segments have evolved from
southeastern Colorado into east-central New Mexico, and these
complexes will forward-propagate eastward toward the
Panhandles/southwestern Kansas tonight with an attendant wind/hail
threat.  Severe probabilities remain unchanged for this scenario.
