    Areas affected...portions of west-central and southern Minnesota

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 274...

    Valid 052052Z - 052215Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 274
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The threat for large hail and damaging wind gusts
    continues across newly issued Severe Thunderstorm Watch 274.

    DISCUSSION...Several discrete/semi-discrete supercells have
    developed just east of the SD/MN border as of 2030 UTC, with a
    recent report of 1" hail and a measured gust of 56 kts. A corridor
    of marginally steeper mid-level lapse rates (6.5+ C/km) analyzed via
    latest objective analysis and modestly increasing mid-level flow
    (sampled by the MPX VAD profile) immediately downstream of an
    approaching shortwave trough will continue to promote the potential
    for large hail as these storms propagate southeastward, with
    damaging to occasionally severe wind gusts also possible. A locally
    greater severe risk may evolve should a storm favorable interact
    with a remnant outflow boundary from prior convection (evident on
    visible satellite imagery and surface observations).=20

    With time, storms may evolve into one or more bowing
    segments/clusters, which would favor an attendant increase in the
    threat for damaging wind gusts. Convective coverage and severity
    should then gradually wane later this evening as nocturnal cooling/stabilization begins.
