    Areas affected...portions of central into eastern South Dakota...far
    southeast North Dakota...and northern Nebraska

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely=20

    Valid 102050Z - 102145Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

    SUMMARY...The severe threat is increasing across portions of central
    into eastern SD and northern NE. Severe hail and wind are the
    primary threats, though a tornado or two are also possible. A WW
    issuance will likely be needed in the next couple of hours.

    DISCUSSION...A surface low is gradually deepening across central SD
    as a mid-level trough approaches from the west. Ample diurnal
    heating has supported temperatures rising into the mid to upper 80s,
    boosting MLCAPE to 3000+ J/kg (given 7-8 C/km mid-level lapse rates
    atop 70 F surface dewpoints), which is also contributing to eroding
    MLCINH. Cumulus have recently developed along a line from roughly
    Hyde County, SD to Rock County, NE ahead of an eastward advancing
    dryline. Current thinking is that storm initiation should take place
    over the next few hours. Forecast soundings and the latest ABR VAD
    shows hodographs with low-level curvature and mid-level elongation,
    suggesting that supercells may be the initial mode of convection
    before upscale growth into an MCS occurs. Severe hail and wind will
    be the primary threats with supercells, and a tornado or two will be
    possible. Should MCS upscale growth occur, then severe winds will
    become the primary concern.
