MD 1297 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH LIKELY FOR SOUTHERN MN INTO NORTHERN IA AND WEST-CENTRAL WI
Mesoscale Discussion 1297 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0255 AM CDT Mon Jun 17 2024 Areas affected...southern MN into northern IA and west-central WI Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely Valid 170755Z - 170930Z Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent SUMMARY...Isolated large hail and strong/severe wind gusts 50-65 mph possible through early morning. A severe thunderstorm watch is being considered. DISCUSSION...A cluster of thunderstorms has become better organized near the southwest MN/northwest IA border over the past hour. This activity is occurring closer to a surface boundary and on the nose of a 35 kt southwesterly low-level jet. Sufficient instability, steep midlevel lapse rates, and effective shear magnitudes greater than 35 kt will support strong to severe thunderstorms into early morning. A severe thunderstorm watch will likely be needed soon to address this increasing severe risk. ..Leitman/Guyer.. 06/17/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

WW 426 SEVERE TSTM NE SD 170305Z - 171100Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 426 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1005 PM CDT Sun Jun 16 2024 The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of Western and Northern Nebraska Southern and Southeastern South Dakota * Effective this Sunday night and Monday morning from 1005 PM until 600 AM CDT. * Primary threats include... Scattered large hail likely with isolated very large hail events to 2 inches in diameter possible Isolated damaging wind gusts to 70 mph possible SUMMARY...Scattered to numerous elevated thunderstorms are forecast to develop as a low-level jet intensifies over the central Great Plains late this evening into tonight. The stronger thunderstorms will be capable of mainly a risk for large to very large hail (1 to 2 inches in diameter) and perhaps a more isolated threat for severe gusts. The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 75 statute miles north and south of a line from 10 miles north of Scottsbluff NE to 20 miles north northeast of Sioux Falls SD. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU6). PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area. Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce tornadoes. && OTHER WATCH INFORMATION...CONTINUE...WW 425... AVIATION...A few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to 2 inches. Extreme turbulence and surface wind gusts to 60 knots. A few cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 500. Mean storm motion vector 24035. ...Smith Read more

Day 4-8 Outlook
Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0359 AM CDT Mon Jun 17 2024 Valid 201200Z - 251200Z ...DISCUSSION... Models are in good agreement showing minimal severe potential for much of the period, with generally weak winds aloft across the CONUS and an upper high over much of the East. There is some indication that the northern-stream may become more active along the US/CA border starting around Saturday/D6 or Sunday/D7, mainly from the upper MS Valley across the Great Lakes. Instability would appear to be weak to moderate, and at least a low threat of severe storms may materialize from MN to MI. Should such a trough occur, a strong storm threat could extend into the Northeast as well toward Monday/D8. Otherwise, the weak winds aloft and generally high heights should preclude much potential across the remainder of the CONUS through the period. Read more
