MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 0698
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0216 PM CDT MON MAY 05 2025
AREAS AFFECTED...PORTIONS OF EASTERN WYOMING INTO WESTERN SOUTH
DAKOTA AND FAR SOUTHWESTERN NORTH DAKOTA
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY
VALID 051916Z - 052045Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...5 PERCENT
SUMMARY...A COUPLE OF SEVERE GUSTS AND PERHAPS AN INSTANCE OF HAIL
MAY OCCUR WITH THE STRONGER STORMS THIS AFTERNOON. THE SEVERE THREAT
SHOULD BE ISOLATED, SO A WW ISSUANCE IS NOT EXPECTED.
DISCUSSION...MULTICELLULAR HIGH-BASED CONVECTION HAS DEVELOPED ALONG
A COLD FRONT, ATOP A MIXED BOUNDARY LAYER, CHARACTERIZED BY 8-9.5
C/KM 0-3 KM LAPSE RATES, OVER THE SD/WY BORDER. AS THE BOUNDARY
LAYER FURTHER DESTABILIZES, ADDITIONAL PULSE-CELLULAR AND MULTICELL
STORMS SHOULD FORM ALONG THE COLD FRONT THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. GIVEN
A DRY BOUNDARY LAYER, EVAPORATIVE COOLING VIA THE STRONGER STORM
CORES WILL PROMOTE SOME POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE GUSTS. WITH MID-LEVEL
LAPSE RATES ALSO APPROACHING 8 C/KM AMID MARGINAL VERTICAL WIND
SHEAR, AN INSTANCE OF SEVERE HAIL ALSO CANNOT BE RULED OUT. WITH THE
SEVERE THREAT LIKELY REMAINING ISOLATED, A WW ISSUANCE IS NOT
ANTICIPATED.
