concerning ... severe potential ... watch likely
valid 190133z - 190330z
probability of watch issuance ... 80 percent
summary ... strong to severe storms capable of damaging wind gusts and
localized large hail will likely move newd from ne into sern sd and
adjacent portions of ia/mn. the area is being strongly considered
for a severe thunderstorm watch.
discussion ... organizing broken qlcs over s - cntrl ne and the ne
sandhills will probably continue to consolidate and mature as it
moves ne across nrn and ern ne over the next few hours. surface
observations over n - cntrl ne and sern sd show an area of pressure
falls with dewpoints in the lower to mid 60s deg f. a pressure
fall/rise couplet appears to be developing with 1 - 3 mb/hr rises
noted behind the storms over ne.
the 00z/19 oax raob showed very steep h7 - h5 lapse rates /9 deg c per
km/ resulting in a moderately unstable airmass downstream of the
ongoing activity. forecast soundings over sern sd exhibit a similar
moisture/lapse rate profile. 25 - 35 kt 0 - 6 km shear will facilitate
organized line segments potentially capable of isold severe
downdrafts and localized large hail.
