POTENT UPPER LEVEL STORM SYSTEM EMERGING INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS WILL COMBINE WITH AN EXTREMELY UNSTABLE AIRMASS IN PLACE ACROSS THE REGION...RESULTING IN WIDESPREAD CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT THROUGH TONIGHT. DEEP LAYER SHEAR AND INSTABILITY ARE FAVORABLE FOR SUPERCELLS WITH ATTENDANT THREAT FOR VERY LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS. LOW 70 DEW POINTS HAVE ADVECTED NORTH ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA...WHICH WILL RESULT IN LOW LCL HEIGHTS...HOWEVER LIMITED LOW LEVEL SHEAR WILL MITIGATE TORNADO THREAT SOMEWHAT. EXPECT CONVECTION TO OVERSPREAD WESTERN CWA WITHIN 23-01Z TIMEFRAME. STRENGTHENING DEEP LAYER SHEAR DURING THIS TIME FRAME WILL ENHANCE SEVERE THREAT. EXPECT CONVECTION TO CONGEAL INTO SEVERE MCS AS IT PROPAGATES NORTHEAST ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL AND CENTRAL MO. IN ADDITION...FLASH FLOOD THREAT IS HIGH GIVEN SATURATED ANTECEDENT CONDITIONS.

STORMS SHOULD BE CLEARING AREA BY SUNDAY MORNING. MAY SEE SOME REDEVELOPMENT IN SOUTHERN AND EASTERN MISSOURI ON SUNDAY...AND SOME CONCERN SOMETHING MIGHT TRY TO REDEVELOP IN SOUTHEAST PART OF FORECAST AREA DEPENDING ON THE THE PROGRESS OF THE UPPER WAVE.
