WW 408 SEVERE TSTM IL IN MI OH LM 131850Z - 140100Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 408
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
150 PM CDT Thu Jun 13 2024
The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
* Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of
Northern Illinois
Northern Indiana
Southern and Central Lower Michigan
Far Northwest Ohio
Lake Michigan
* Effective this Thursday afternoon and evening from 150 PM until
800 PM CDT.
* Primary threats include...
Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 2.5
inches in diameter possible
Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph possible
A tornado or two possible
SUMMARY...Thunderstorms are expected to continue increasing in
coverage this afternoon while posing a threat for large hail around
1.5-2.5 inches in diameter. Severe/damaging winds of 60-70 mph may
also occur as convection moves east-southeastward and potentially
grows into one or more small clusters through the afternoon and
early evening.
The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 60
statute miles north and south of a line from 20 miles west southwest
of Marseilles IL to 10 miles north of Jackson MI. For a complete
depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update

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.
&&
AVIATION...A few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to
2.5 inches. Extreme turbulence and surface wind gusts to 60 knots. A
few cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 500. Mean storm motion vector

MD 1252 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 409... FOR PARTS OF THE MIDWEST
Mesoscale Discussion 1252
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0518 PM CDT Thu Jun 13 2024
Areas affected...Parts of the Midwest
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 409...
Valid 132218Z - 132345Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 409
continues.
SUMMARY...Cluster of severe thunderstorms will propagate across
southeast Iowa/northeast Missouri into western Illinois. Very large
hail, possibly in excess of 2 inches, can be expected with this
activity.
DISCUSSION...An expanding cluster of severe thunderstorms has
developed over southeast IA/northeast MO early this evening. This
activity is evolving along a wind shift that extends from western
IL/southeast IA/northwest MO. Latest diagnostic data suggests this
convection is evolving within an air mass characterized by 3000 J/kg
MLCAPE and adequately sheared for sustained rotating updrafts.
Numerous reports of hail in excess of 2 inches have been received
with this convection. With time this cluster should grow upscale and
an MCS may ultimately evolve. Severe winds may become more common
if/when the MCS matures. Subsequent movement is expected across
western into central IL.

MD 1253 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE FOR TEXAS PANHANDLE/OKLAHOMA PANHANDLE INTO WESTERN OKLAHOMA
Mesoscale Discussion 1253

Areas affected...Texas Panhandle/Oklahoma Panhandle into Western
Oklahoma
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible
Valid 132224Z - 132330Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent
SUMMARY...A severe thunderstorm watch will be considered for the
potential for a developing severe-wind gust threat as storms
intensify into the early evening.
DISCUSSION...Thunderstorm development has been ongoing across the
Texas/Oklahoma Panhandles this afternoon. MLCAPE around 1500-2000
J/kg amid temperatures exceeding 100 F and dew point depressions in
the 40-50s, will support a risk for strong evaporatively cooled
downdrafts and an accompanying risk for severe gusts.

MD 1251 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 408... FOR SOUTHERN GREAT LAKES
Mesoscale Discussion 1251
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0446 PM CDT Thu Jun 13 2024
Areas affected...Southern Great Lakes
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 408...
Valid 132146Z - 132315Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 408
continues.
SUMMARY...Broken squall line will propagate southeast this evening
with an attendant risk for locally damaging winds and some hail
risk.
DISCUSSION...Great Lakes short-wave trough is progressing across WI
toward Lower MI this evening. This feature appears to be partly
responsible for scattered strong/severe thunderstorms that have
developed along a prefrontal boundary that is draped from southern
Lower MI into northeast IL. This boundary is coincident with the
primary axis of instability, albeit notably weaker across northern
IN/southern MI. This activity will soon advance beyond the greater
zone of instability and gradual weakening is expected as the broken
squall line shifts into a region of lower surface dew points.

1100 PM CDT.
* Primary threats include...
Widespread damaging winds and isolated significant gusts to 85
mph likely
Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 3
inches in diameter possible
SUMMARY...Scattered thunderstorms are forecast to continue to
develop late this afternoon into the early evening. Several
clusters of severe thunderstorms will likely evolve and pose a risk
for severe gusts potentially ranging between 60-85 mph. Large to
very large hail is possible with the more intense storms mainly from
central parts of Kansas eastward into eastern Kansas.
The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 75
statute miles north and south of a line from 65 miles west of Garden
City KS to 30 miles northeast of Emporia KS. For a complete
depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update
(WOUS64 KWNS WOU0).
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.
