    Areas affected...parts of northwestern into north central Kansas and
    adjacent southern Nebraska

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 425...

    Valid 010133Z - 010330Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 425
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The ongoing convective system may tend to weaken, but
    renewed strong to severe thunderstorm development might continue to
    develop into and northeast of Hill City and the Kansas/Nebraska
    state border vicinity through late evening.

    DISCUSSION...Notable low-level drying is ongoing across much of
    southern through eastern Kansas, as a remnant narrow plume of higher
    moisture content returns northwestward toward the Front Range
    through southern portions of the mid Missouri Valley, in advance of
    weak larger-scale mid-level troughing still digging into the West.=20
    It remains unclear how this will impact the ongoing convective
    cluster. However, the cold pool associated with this cluster is
    beginning to surge eastward out ahead of the stronger convection on
    its southern flank, to the north of Dodge City, and may tend to
    continue to propagate into the drier/substantively stabilizing
    environment. The MCV appears to be maintaining a
    north-northeastward migration toward the Hill City vicinity, and
    forcing for ascent to its northeast could support renewing vigorous thunderstorm within the southern fringe of the higher moisture
    content/strong potential instability across and north of the
    Kansas/Nebraska border into mid to late evening.
