AREAS AFFECTED...PORTIONS OF NORTHEASTERN SOUTH DAKOTA INTO WESTERN
MINNESOTA
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY
VALID 102056Z - 102300Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...5 PERCENT
SUMMARY...ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING ALONG THE SD/MN BORDER
MAY POSE A RISK FOR ISOLATED DAMAGING WIND GUSTS AND LARGE HAIL.
DISCUSSION...LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS PLACES A REMNANT SURFACE
BOUNDARY EXTENDING NORTHWEST-SOUTHEAST ACROSS NORTHEASTERN SOUTH
DAKOTA AND SOUTHWESTERN MINNESOTA. ISOLATED, ONGOING THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT IS NOTED ALONG THIS BOUNDARY WITHIN A BULLSEYE OF
LOCALLY GREATER BUOYANCY (2000-3000+ J/KG MLCAPE PER LATEST
MESOANALYSIS). WITH ONLY WEAK TO MODEST EFFECTIVE SHEAR (20-25 KTS)
AND MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATES LESS THAN 7 C/KM, CONVECTIVE ORGANIZATION
AND INTENSITY ARE LIKELY TO REMAIN LIMITED OVERALL. NEVERTHELESS,
STEEP LOW-LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND THE AFOREMENTIONED MODERATE TO
STRONG INSTABILITY MAY SUPPORT AN ISOLATED RISK FOR DAMAGING WIND
GUSTS AND LARGE HAIL (WITH PERHAPS AN INSTANCE TO 1.5" IN DIAMETER
WITH THE STRONGEST CORES). WATCH ISSUANCE IS NOT ANTICIPATED AT THIS
TIME OWING TO THE EXPECTATION FOR THE SEVERE RISK TO REMAIN LIMITED
IN MAGNITUDE AND COVERAGE.
