| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Although not as widespread in coverage as the night before, a smattering of strong to severe thunderstorms again paid a visit to portions of South Central Nebraska from late Wednesday evening the 28th into early Thursday morning the 29th. This time though, severe activity focused farther south within counties along the Kansas border. Among the limited ground-truth reports: golf ball to slightly larger size hail between Red Cloud and Guide Rock and estimated 60 MPH winds in Nelson that downed a large tree branch. In addition, parts of the area picked up at least 2-3 of rain, especially within southern Nuckolls and southeastern Webster counties, highlighted by 3.54 east of Red Cloud as reported by a CoCoRaHS observer. ||The first storms of the night initiated around sunset just to the south over far northern Kansas, with this activity creeping northward over the state line between 11 p.m. and midnight CDT. Also around midnight CDT, several additional storms ignited along a west-east corridor directly over the far South Central Nebraska counties, peaking in intensity over the next few hours before slipping south into Kansas and/or weakening by 2:30 a.m. CDT. Another round of storms tracked into the area from the southwest closer to sunrise, but these were not severe. ||This was a fairly classic case of nocturnal convection firing up within the well-defined exit region of a 40+ knot low level jet (evident at 850 millibars), and just to the north of a quasi-stationary surface front draped through northern Kansas. In the mid-upper levels, the setup was also typical for summer severe weather, featuring quasi-zonal flow containing a series of embedded, small-scale disturbances. As storms peaked in intensity after midnight, the environment featured 1000-2000 J/kg mixed-layer CAPE and effective deep layer wind shear of 30-40 knots. |
