Areas affected...Far northern Missouri into southeast Iowa

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

Valid 120257Z - 120500Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

SUMMARY...A pair of supercells that has developed over southeast
Iowa may pose a brief tornado and isolated hail risk over the next
couple of hours. Additional supercell development is possible, but
the overall severe threat is expected to remain limited spatially
and temporally.

DISCUSSION...Over the past hour, a pair of supercells has developed
across southeast IA in the vicinity of a decaying MCV emanating out
of northern MO. This activity is on the northern fringe of an axis
of warm low-level conditions/weakly inhibited MLCAPE and is on the
periphery of a swath of 30-35 knot mid-level winds associated with
the MCV. Based on recent mesoanalysis estimates, this spatial window
of favorable MLCAPE and adequate deep-layer wind shear appears
relatively small with weaker CAPE/greater inhibition with northward
extent and weaker shear with southward extent. However, these cells
may linger within this window for the next couple of hours. While
some low-level veering is noted via surface observations and recent
upper-air analyses/forecast soundings, weak wind magnitudes are
limiting overall SRH (only around 50-100 m2/s2 effective SRH). This
casts uncertainty on the overall tornado potential. Nonetheless, the
velocity signatures associated with the supercells suggest organized mesocyclones are present and some brief tornado and hail threat may
manifest with these storms prior to stronger nocturnal low-level
stabilization later this evening. An additional supercell or two may
develop within a weak warm advection regime across far northern
MO/southeast IA, but overall coverage of the severe threat is
expected to be limited in the absence of stronger forcing for ascent
and increasing inhibition with time.
