Primarily between 11 PM and 6 AM on this late Saturday evening into early Sunday morning, this six-county area in North Central Kansas experienced widespread coverage of thunderstorms, mainly in the form of multicell clusters and small line segments. Although most locations only had sub-severe wind gusts and rainfall totals in the 0.50 to 1.25-inch range, there was one report of quarter size hail before midnight at Gaylord in Smith County.
As storms first developed into the area during the late evening, they consisted of a small, weakening mesoscale convective system (MCS) moving in from northwest Kansas, and new, more isolated cells popping up ahead of the MCS along the nose of a modest 30 knot low level jet evident at 850-millibars. The initial MCS development took place during the early evening in northeast Colorado and far northwest Kansas, then steadily rolled eastward with the aid of a well-formed mesoscale convective vortex (MCV). At the surface, North Central Kansas was positioned north of an east-west stationary front bisecting southern Kansas. Mesoscale convective parameters around the time of the quarter size hail report included MUCAPE around 2000 j/kg and deep-layer vertical wind shear around 30 knots.
