MD 1024 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 286... FOR NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA...SOUTHEAST KANSAS...SOUTHWEST MISSOURI...NORTHWEST ARKANSAS Mesoscale Discussion 1024 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0423 AM CDT Mon Jun 08 2026 Areas affected...Northeast Oklahoma...southeast Kansas...southwest Missouri...northwest Arkansas Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 286... Valid 080923Z - 081130Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 286 continues. SUMMARY...Isolated wind damage remains possible early this morning. If a stronger cold pool develops, expect southward movement of a small MCS. A tornado threat also remains, particularly with embedded supercell structures. DISCUSSION...Regional VAD data continues to show a low-level jet focused into northeast Oklahoma/southwest Missouri. This will support additional convective development through the early morning. While isolated wind damage is possible in the short term, there has been a tendency for convection to cluster in southwest Missouri. Should a stronger cold pool eventually develop, this could push farther south into the buoyancy axis. Additionally, the threat for a tornado or two remains with any supercell structures. An increase in low/mid-level rotation has been noted on KSGF/KINX velocity data over the last hour. Low-level hodographs remain large per VAD data as well. ..Wendt.. 06/08/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...LZK...SGF...TSA...ICT...
