TWO KEY PLAYERS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF SVR WX OVR CWA TNT...

FIRST OF ALL...A WEAK CNVGNC LINE FM MCI TO PO2 HAS BEEN THE FOCUS OF
TSTM DVLPMNT LAST SVRL HRS OVR SRN MO. ATM VERY UNSTBL...00Z ADAD DATA
STILL SHWS STG CNVGNC FIELD ALNG BDRY AND LOWEST LI'S S OF KC METRO
AREA. HEATING WILL BE DYING OFF AFT 01Z BUT PROFILERS EARLIER INDICATED
NOSE OF WEAK H8 JET POINTIING RIGHT AT NW END OF BNDRY. WILL CLOSELY
MONITOR CWA FM MCI TO SZL NXT FEW HRS. FOR SRN CWA IN WATCH SVR WATCH
AREA HAVE UPDATED NOW'S FOR TSTM DVLPMNT BETWEEN 9 PM AND MDNT.

NEXT WE HAVE H5 SHRT WX AND PVA PUNCHING INTO NRN IA ATTM. AREA OF AC
AND R- OBSERVED ON 88-D LAST FEW HRS OVR IA ALNG LEADING EDGE OF H8
WAA. STLT AT 00Z STARTING TO SHW MORE TWRG CU OVR IA AS PVA NOSES SWRD
FM NRN PLNS. OAX SNDG MUCH MORE UNSTBL AT 00Z WITH BOTH HIGHER CAPE AND
DELTA-T. 00Z PROFILE DATA AND 850-300 THICKNESS AXIS WOULD STEER MCS
MORE TWRDS N CENT OR NE MO...HOWEVER AS DAY SHIFT AT EAX POINTED OUT
EARLIER...TSTMS OVERNIGHT MAY WANT TO BUILD INTO UNSTBL AIR OVR WRN MO.
BUT WITH N-S BNDRY SETTING UP OVR IA AND H8 JET RAMMING INTO IT FM THE
WEST...N CENT MO SEEMS LIKE MOST LIKELY TARGET ATTM FOR AFT MDNT.
FCST LKS GOOD...NO SGFNT CHANGES ANTICIPATED.
