SUMMARY…Severe threat continues with bowing complex in far west Kentucky. A Severe Thunderstorm Watch will be issued soon.
DISCUSSION…A highly organized MCS continues to surge south into far southeast Missouri into far western Kentucky, with a strong cold pool and associated rear-inflow jet evident. Several reports of severe wind gusts and wind damage reports have been received within the last two hours, and given that at least a modestly buoyant airmass remains in place (despite overturning from earlier convection), the threat for damaging wind gusts will likely continue for a few more hours. As such, a Severe Thunderstorm Watch will be issued shortly.
