MD 1683 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 516... FOR SOUTHEASTERN NEBRASKA...SOUTHWESTERN IOWA...NORTHEASTERN KANSAS...NORTHWESTERN MISSOURI
Mesoscale Discussion 1683
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1045 PM CDT Tue Jul 15 2025
Areas affected...southeastern Nebraska...southwestern
Iowa...northeastern Kansas...northwestern Missouri
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 516...
Valid 160345Z - 160545Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 516
continues.
SUMMARY...The ongoing cluster of storms has been generally
weakening, but continues to promote strong surface gusts, which
could still sporadically approach or exceed severe limits. This
will continue to spread southeastward through Midnight-2 AM CDT,
particularly across the southeast Nebraska vicinity. It is not
clear that a new severe weather watch will be needed downstream, but
trends will continue to be monitored.
DISCUSSION...Notable surface pressure rises (2-4+ mb 2-hourly) have
been maintained within the cold pool on the southwestern flank of
the forward propagating convective system, supporting the
southeastward and southward advancement of the cold pool across the
Norfolk, Columbus, Grand Island, Hastings, Kearney and Lexington
vicinities of Nebraska. The more intense leading edge of the
convection has become a bit more displaced above/to the cool side of
the gust front, and now appears generally focused within forcing
associated with warm advection, on the nose a strengthening
southerly low-level jet associated with nocturnal boundary-layer
decoupling.
However, with increasing inhibition associated with the
boundary-layer cooling, coupled with warmer mid-level temperatures
with southeastward extent across the Missouri Valley and central
Great Plains, it remains unclear how much longer near surface
updraft inflow will be sufficient to maintain vigorous thunderstorm
development. Based on the latest objective analysis, a corridor of
better low-level moisture flanking the Missouri River vicinity might
promote the best potential for lingering stronger thunderstorm
development into 05-07Z time frame, which may be accompanied by a
continuing potential to produce strong to severe surface gusts.

MD 1682 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 514... FOR PARTS OF SOUTHWESTERN MINNESOTA...SOUTHEASTERN SOUTH DAKOTA...NORTHWESTERN IOWA...SOUTHERN AND EASTERN NEBRASKA
Mesoscale Discussion 1682
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0819 PM CDT Tue Jul 15 2025
Areas affected...parts of southwestern Minnesota...southeastern
South Dakota...northwestern Iowa...southern and eastern Nebraska
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 514...
Valid 160119Z - 160245Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 514
continues.
SUMMARY...An organized convective system probably will maintain
intensity with a continuing risk for strong to severe gusts as it
propagates southeastward through 9-11 PM CDT.
DISCUSSION...Convection has grown upscale into an organizing
convective system, including the evolution of a couple of notable
embedded meso-beta scale cyclonic circulations. One associated
southeastward cold pool surge is ongoing across/southeast of the
Yankton SD vicinity, at a forward propagation around 30 kt. To the
southwest, another southeastward surge across and southeast of
Broken Bow NE is a bit slower, around 20 kt, but the nose of a
nocturnally strengthening low-level jet (in excess of 30 around 850
mb) may begin interacting with this portion of the QLCS by 03-04Z.
Inflow of seasonably moist boundary-layer air characterized by
sizable CAPE appears likely to be maintained through this time
frame, and perhaps a bit beyond.

MD 1680 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY FOR SOUTHEASTERN ARIZONA
Mesoscale Discussion 1680
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0739 PM CDT Tue Jul 15 2025
Areas affected...southeastern Arizona
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 160039Z - 160245Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent
SUMMARY...Marginal risk for strong to severe wind will continue
through the afternoon.
DISCUSSION...Thunderstorm activity continues across portions of
southeastern Arizona, with occasional intense cores noted.
Temperatures have warmed to the upper 90s to 100 F through the
afternoon/evening with dew point spreads of around 40-45 degrees.
The large dew point spread and low level lapse rates around 8-9 C/km
will promote a few instances of severe wind. This threat looks to
remain too localized for watch issuance.

WW 514 SEVERE TSTM KS NE SD 152050Z - 160400Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 514
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
350 PM CDT Tue Jul 15 2025
The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
* Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of
Northern Kansas
Western and Central Nebraska
Southeast South Dakota
* Effective this Tuesday afternoon and evening from 350 PM until
1100 PM CDT.
* Primary threats include...

mph likely
Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 2
inches in diameter possible
SUMMARY...Scattered thunderstorms are forecast to develop along a
front this afternoon into the evening and grow upscale into a linear
cluster. Large hail will be the primary severe hazard this
afternoon before storms increase in coverage and congeal into one or
two linear clusters. Severe gusts will become the primary severe
hazard during the evening as this activity moves east-southeast
across the Watch area.
The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 85
statute miles east and west of a line from 35 miles east northeast
of Chamberlain SD to 20 miles south southeast of Mccook NE. For a
complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline
update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU4).
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.

Mesoscale Discussion 1681
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0756 PM CDT Tue Jul 15 2025
Areas affected...parts pf central Wyoming
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 515...
Valid 160056Z - 160230Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 515
continues.
SUMMARY...A small cluster of thunderstorms may pose a continuing
risk for severe hail and wind east of Lander toward areas near and
south of Casper through 8-9 PM MDT.
DISCUSSION...A small cluster of thunderstorms is maintaining
intensity east of Lander and appears supported by low-level updraft
inflow emanating from a well mixed boundary-layer characterized by
CAPE on the order of 500-1000 J/kg. Objective analysis and model
output suggest this environment extends in a narrow corridor across
and southwest of Casper, into the western slopes of the Laramie
Mountains. Although westerly deep-layer mean flow is weak, this is
partially due to pronounced veering from low-level easterlies to
mid-level westerlies, with Rapid Refresh forecast soundings from
around Casper indicating some strengthening of wind fields
contributing to strong shear during the next couple of hours.
