PUBLIC SEVERE WEATHER OUTLOOK NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK 0523 AM CDT SAT APR 14 2012 ...AN OUTBREAK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AND TORNADOES IS EXPECTED OVER PARTS OF THE CENTRAL PLAINS THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT... THE NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER IN NORMAN OK IS FORECASTING THE DEVELOPMENT OF A FEW STRONG...LONG-TRACK TORNADOES OVER PARTS OF THE CENTRAL PLAINS THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. THE AREAS MOST LIKELY TO EXPERIENCE THIS ACTIVITY INCLUDE CENTRAL AND EASTERN KANSAS CENTRAL AND EASTERN NEBRASKA CENTRAL AND NORTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA ELSEWHERE...SEVERE STORMS ARE ALSO POSSIBLE FROM...NORTH TEXAS TO IOWA AND SOUTHEAST SOUTH DAKOTA/SOUTHERN MINNESOTA. A VERY MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIR MASS WILL SPREAD NORTHWARD FROM OKLAHOMA TO KANSAS AND NEBRASKA TODAY...IN ADVANCE OF A STRONG UPPER-LEVEL STORM SYSTEM AND STRENGTHENING SURFACE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM. AFTER SOME MORNING-EARLY AFTERNOON STORMS FROM NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA TO EASTERN NEBRASKA...MORE INTENSE STORM DEVELOPMENT IS EXPECTED NEAR THE SURFACE LOW IN CENTRAL NEBRASKA THIS AFTERNOON...AND SOUTHWARD ALONG THE WEST EDGE OF THE MOIST/UNSTABLE AIR MASS IN CENTRAL KANSAS AND WESTERN/CENTRAL OKLAHOMA. THE STORM ENVIRONMENT APPEARS TO BE VERY FAVORABLE FOR SUPERCELL THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING VERY LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING TORNADOES FOR LONG PATHS FROM LATE AFTERNOON UNTIL AT LEAST MIDNIGHT. EVEN THOUGH THE STORMS COULD REMAIN WIDELY SEPARATED...FAST-MOVING TORNADOES CONTINUING AFTER DARK WILL HEIGHTEN THE RISK TO LIFE AND PROPERTY. SOME OF THE LARGER CITIES THAT MAY BE IMPACTED INCLUDE OMAHA AND LINCOLN NEBRASKA...TOPEKA AND WICHITA KANSAS...AS WELL AS OKLAHOMA CITY AND TULSA OKLAHOMA. STATE AND LOCAL EMERGENCY MANAGERS ARE MONITORING THIS POTENTIALLY VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THOSE IN THE THREATENED AREA ARE URGED TO REVIEW SEVERE WEATHER SAFETY RULES AND TO LISTEN TO RADIO...TELEVISION...AND NOAA WEATHER RADIO FOR POSSIBLE WATCHES...WARNINGS...AND STATEMENTS LATER TODAY.
