    Areas affected...Central KS and south-central NE

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 187...

    Valid 061858Z - 062030Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 187 continues.

    SUMMARY...Overall severe threat, primarily in the form of large hail
    through late afternoon within WW 187, should be confined to central
    Kansas into south-central Nebraska. The tornado threat should
    increase, mainly across the Kansas portion of the watch.

    DISCUSSION...A convective arc across south-central NE to
    west-central KS has produced a few reports of large hail reported up
    to 1.25 inches in diameter. Pervasive stratus downstream has slowed destabilization farther east and north, especially within the NE
    portion of the watch. Current expectations are that the severe
    threat will largely remain confined to the southern portion of the
    watch over the next few hours where a plume of 1000-2000 J/kg of
    MLCAPE is common. 18Z DDC sounding sampled some reduction in
    low-level hodograph curvature, as indicated by its VWP time-series.
    Still, along the northern extent of the instability plume in
    north-central KS, more backed low-level flow will foster a threat of
    tornadoes, focused along the I-70 corridor.
