Areas affected...Parts of western North Dakota
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 485...
Valid 040210Z - 040345Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 485
continues.
SUMMARY...Large hail and locally severe gusts remain possible with
evolving thunderstorms over western North Dakota.
DISCUSSION...Isolated thunderstorms that initiated along a
NNE/SSW-oriented surface wind shift in western ND have shown
transient intensification as they track slowly eastward off the
boundary. Ahead of these storms, very steep midlevel lapse rates
(accompanying an EML) atop lower 70s dewpoints are contributing to strong-extreme surface-based buoyancy. While low-level inhibition at
the base of the EML and weak large-scale forcing for ascent do cast
some uncertainty on storm maintenance/longevity (especially in the
near-term), the strong-extreme buoyancy and 30-40 kt of effective
shear will conditionally favor supercells with a risk of large hail
and locally severe gusts. With time, large-scale forcing for ascent
will increase ahead of an approaching midlevel trough currently
moving into eastern MT, along with low-level warm advection along
the western periphery of a strengthening low-level jet. This should
promote additional strong-severe thunderstorms in the next few
hours.
