   1133 PM CDT Sun Jun 07 2020

   Areas affected...North Dakota...Northwestern Minnesota

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 269...

   Valid 080433Z - 080600Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 269
   continues.

   SUMMARY...Isolated severe threat continues across ww269.

   DISCUSSION...Weak mid-level short-wave trough is lifting
   north-northeast across ND late this evening. This feature appears to
   be partly responsible for organized convective cluster that has
   shifted across eastern ND into northwest MN. While gusty wind may be
   accompany this activity, weaker instability downstream suggests
   severe threat is considerably lower.

   Behind this convection, over the last few hours, strengthening LLJ
   over SD has contributed to new thunderstorm activity near the
   frontal zone. Hail cores have gradually decreased with these
   updrafts but isolated severe should persist into the early morning
   hours which should track back into southern portions of the watch.
   While the overall severe threat appears to have waned somewhat,
   hail, along with some wind threat, remain possible.
