    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 667...

    Valid 050217Z - 050415Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 667
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Numerous severe gusts associated with a bow echo will
    likely continue to the northeast of Severe Thunderstorm Watch #667.=20
    A new downstream severe thunderstorm watch will be needed by 10pm
    CDT (03 UTC). Peak gusts 65-80 mph are forecast.

    DISCUSSION...A compact but intense bow echo continues moving
    northeast along and immediately to the northwest of a surface trough
    oriented from southwest to northeast. Surface conditions ahead of
    the bow echo are warm with temperatures in the mid-upper 70s and
    dewpoints are mostly in the low to mid 60s. A RAWS site in Sioux
    Co., ND sampled a peak gust of 88 mph around 0050 UTC with the bow
    echo.

    KBIS (Bismarck) 88D VAD shows a strong Rear Inflow Jet with the bow
    echo with 60-kt flow less than 1km AGL. Despite some boundary layer
    cooling through the remainder of the evening, steep 850-500 mb lapse
    rates (7.1 deg C/km per the Bismarck 00 UTC raob), strengthening QG
    forcing for ascent via the approach of a mid-level shortwave trough
    and strengthening LLJ into southeast ND, the dynamic character of
    the bow echo will combine to be favorable for a continuation of a
    risk for severe gusts into the late evening. The peak gust
    magnitude will probably be weaker than in southern ND but 65-80 mph
    are forecast with the more intense downbursts.
