    Mesoscale Discussion 1249

    Areas affected...north central Iowa and southern Minnesota

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 250237Z - 250400Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...New convective development ahead of the ejecting shortwave
    may continue to intensify tonight. Isolated hail and damaging winds
    are possible. While uncertain, there is potential a weather watch
    may be needed.

    DISCUSSION...Across portions of the upper Midwest, evening WV
    imagery showed a compact upper low ejecting eastward into portions
    of northern IA and southern MN. Ahead of the upper low, broad scale
    ascent from mid-level height falls and DPVA has increased, resulting
    in new storm development over the past hour. Despite the loss of
    diurnal heating, area RAP soundings remain moderately unstable with
    steepening mid-level lapse rates from cold advection aloft.
    Deep-layer shear remains favorable for supercells with area VADs
    showing 45-50 kt of effective shear atop the moderate MUCAPE. There
    appears to be a few hour window for storms to mature and pose a risk
    for isolated large hail and damaging wind gusts across portions of
    northern IA and southern MN tonight. Confidence in storm and severe
    coverage, especially the eastward extent in the wake of previous
    outflow, is not overly high. However, recent HRRR runs do show some intensification of ongoing storms is possible. Given the potential
    for large hail and damaging winds, conditions are being monitored
    for possible Severe Thunderstorm Watch issuance.
