    Areas affected...eastern Iowa...northern Illinois...southern
    Wisconsin

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

    Valid 052209Z - 052315Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...Severe threat to increase this evening. Damaging winds,
    large hail, and a tornado are possible.

    DISCUSSION...Surface analysis shows a front extending across the
    upper Ohio River Valley into portions of the Midwest. Visible
    satellite shows cu development along this boundary in eastern Iowa
    and northern Illinois, with a few cells now on radar south of
    Chicago and north of Davenport. The environment in this region is
    characterized by MLCAPE around 2000-2500 J/kg and deep layer shear
    along and north of the boundary around 40-45 kts. The 19z sounding
    profile from DVN further supports this, with around 2300 J/kg
    MLCAPE. Shear profiles are somewhat weak in the low-levels, with
    around 25-50 m2/s2 0-1km SRH in surface objective analysis. However,
    low level shear should increase through time to around 100-200 m2/s2
    per RAP forecasts. CAM guidance suggests a few supercells could
    develop, with potential for large hail, damaging wind, and perhaps a
    tornado. A watch may be needed to cover this threat for portions of
    this area in the next 1-2 hours.
