sweetapricity/bridgedeck-noaa huggingface dataset:
At mid-afternoon on this Saturday, discrete storms initiated over western Kansas near a surface low and dryline and north of a developing warm front. Several of the storms organized along a common cold pool and moved northeast into south-central Nebraska as an arc-shaped squall line. These storms produced multiple wind gusts of 50 to 55 mph and even two severe wind gusts near Lexington and just east of Minden.
An upper-level trough was digging through the desert southwest and lee-side cyclogenesis was underway. Temperatures in the low-mid 80s and rich dewpoints in the mid-upper 60s resulted in MLCAPE of 2500-5000 J/kg. While deep layer shear was strong enough to support supercell storm structures, the number of cells resulted in merging of individual cold pools and ultimately a multicell storm mode.
