I'm not concerned, especially based on satellite trends. Heading up to Joplin to assess and keep a wide area in play for this afternoon. 

What i'm trying to juggle Quincy is chasing and where from.  Frankly I think NEOK has a ton of potential and hard to not see some CI between 4 and 5 based on what I'm seeing but clearly I missed the height falls issues.  

We're going to the lake (Grand lake) either tonight or tomorrow and I could chase out of there but would be by myself, i don't like chasing alone, I prefer having one person to drive and the other to look at maps, posts, models, etc, far safer that way.

Or I chase out of home base and wife and kids stay here where we have a safe room, (My preference)

CAP looks to be breaking over MO and SE KS

1 km HEL sort of blah for the time being...but should be increasing a little 

 

119 AM CDT SAT MAY 27 2017  
  
VALID 271630Z - 281200Z  
  
...THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF  
SOUTHEAST KS...NORTHEAST OK...NORTHERN AR...SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL  
MO...SOUTHERN IL...WESTERN KY...AND NORTHWEST TN...  
  
...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM EASTERN  
KS/OK INTO EASTERN KY/TN...  
  
...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE CENTRAL  
PLAINS TO THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION...  
  
...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PARTS OF  
SOUTHEAST CO...  
  
...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER MUCH OF THE  
CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PLAINS...EASTWARD TO THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES...  
   
..SUMMARY  
  
WIDESPREAD SEVERE WIND GUSTS ARE FORECAST FROM THE OZARK REGION TO  
THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.  ADDITIONALLY,  
VERY LARGE TO GIANT HAIL AND TORNADOES WILL BE POSSIBLE FROM THE RED  
RIVER VALLEY NORTHEASTWARD TO THE OZARK PLATEAU. DAMAGING WINDS,  
LARGE HAIL, AND A COUPLE TORNADOES WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE  
TENNESSEE VALLEY, MIDDLE OHIO VALLEY, AND PORTIONS OF THE  
MID-ATLANTIC.  
   
..EASTERN OK INTO THE MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY  
  
A SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER EVENT IS FORECAST ACROSS THIS PART OF  
THE NATION TODAY, WITH WIDESPREAD SEVERE STORMS LIKELY LATER THIS  
AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.  12Z AND SUBSEQUENT MODEL GUIDANCE SHOWS  
SUBSTANTIAL UNCERTAINTY REGARDING THE DETAILS OF THE CONVECTIVE  
EVOLUTION LATER TODAY, SO LITTLE CHANGES HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE  
ONGOING FORECAST AREAS.  
  
IT APPEARS LIKELY THAT CLUSTERS OF INTENSE THUNDERSTORMS WILL FORM  
BY MID AFTERNOON OVER PARTS OF SOUTHEAST KS/WESTERN MO/FAR NORTHEAST  
OK, IN VICINITY OF REMNANT BOUNDARIES AND WHERE EXTREME INSTABILITY  
IS PRESENT.  A POTENT COMBINATION OF MLCAPE VALUES OVER 5000 J/KG  
AND EFFECTIVE HELICITY OF 200-300 M2/S2 SUGGESTS THAT INITIAL STORMS  
WILL LIKELY BECOME SUPERCELLULAR WITH A RISK OF GIANT HAIL AND  
TORNADOES (PERHAPS STRONG).  AN EVOLUTION TOWARD BOW/LEWP STRUCTURES  
IS INDICATED BY ALL MODEL SOLUTIONS, WITH ONE OR MORE FAST-MOVING  
BOW ECHOES LIKELY TO TRACK FROM SOUTHERN MO INTO WESTERN KY THIS  
EVENING.  THIS POTENTIAL DERECHO WOULD RESULT IN WIDESPREAD AND  
POTENTIALLY SIGNIFICANT WIND DAMAGE.  
  
INITIATION OF THUNDERSTORMS FARTHER SOUTHWEST INTO OK IS LESS  
CERTAIN DUE TO A STRONG CAP AND SUBTLE FORCING, BUT THOSE STORMS  
THAT FORM WILL ALSO LIKELY BECOME SUPERCELLULAR WITH A RISK OF VERY  
LARGE HAIL AND A FEW TORNADOES.  THESE STORMS MAY SPREAD INTO PARTS  
OF AR AFTER DARK.

That storm in SE KS went from basically nothing to 50k+ ft echo tops in six scans.

This will be one to watch in the near-term... relatively more discrete compared to convection near KCK.

Looks like those op-HRRR runs from early this morning are doing fairly well right now. These storms currently likely won't be tornado producers any time soon... but if storms get rooted to the warm front, and if any storms fire along the dryline, watch out.

This stuff in KS went up in a hurry, is this going to create problems for the afternoon convection?  It's a lot stronger than the HRRR or others had it progged at.  North side of the boundary, I tend to think OK KS border and back to the south will stay pretty salty.

TOR watch for the MO border counties IN ks from KCK to to OK line and pretty much the entire southern half of MO with the exception of SE corner until 1900. Probs are T 60/50, W 80/60, H 90/70.

Until 3pm, that's not very late....kind of surprised TBH

What makes you feel that way? You just cant make a claim like that and leave it at a one-liner with absolutely no supporting details.

high cape, sun, discrete cells, shear, helicity. no MCS messing things up like the past few times.
