Areas affected...Northeast SD into extreme southeast ND/west-central
MN

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

Valid 151201Z - 151330Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...Isolated severe gusts and hail are possible this morning.

DISCUSSION...A small but relatively long-lived storm cluster has
recently intensified in the vicinity of a surface boundary across
northeast SD, as it has encountered increasingly favorable buoyancy
(with MUCAPE in excess of 3000 J/kg). The longevity of this cluster
is uncertain, due to its elevated nature and some increase in
downstream MUCINH noted in recent mesoanalysis estimates. Midlevel
flow of 25-35 kt will continue to provide somewhat favorable
effective shear for this cluster as long as it persists.

Strong to locally severe gusts have been reported with this cluster
over the last 60-90 minutes, and a threat for isolated damaging wind
may continue in the short term as this cluster approaches far
west-central MN. Hail in excess of 1-inch in diameter has also been
recently observed, and stronger embedded cells could continue to
pose an isolated hail threat, given the presence of steep midlevel
lapse rates and favorable buoyancy.
