Mesoscale Discussion 0930
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0923 PM CDT Wed Jun 17 2020
Areas affected...North-central Nebraska...Portions of central and
eastern South Dakota
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 283...
Valid 180223Z - 180430Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 283
continues.
SUMMARY...The threat for locally damaging wind gusts will continue
for a few more hours. Most severe activity should cease by midnight
CDT. Isolated large hail may occur with the stronger, more discrete
storms.
DISCUSSION...Storms that formed on the pre-frontal confluence have
diminished in intensity as the boundary layer has begun to cool.
Weaker deep-layer shear in northeastern South Dakota has inhibited
storm organization as compared to south-central South Dakota into
north-central Nebraska. Thunderstorms within southern portions of WW
283 have generally grown upscale into small linear segments and
multicell clusters. These storms have also had a tendency to move
just to the cool side of the composite outflow/cold front. The more
discrete activity in from Cherry County, NE northward to near the
Missouri River have only produced 1-1.5 inch hail reports this
evening. Warm temperatures aloft and a increasingly unfavorable
storm mode should continue to limit the threat for large hail.
Locally damaging wind gusts, particularly with any more organized
clusters/cold pools, will be the main threat going forward. The
expectation is for this southern activity to continue to move slowly
east/northeastward as a 50 kt low-level jet (sampled by KLNX VAD)
continues to provide lift along the boundary. However, with
continued boundary-layer stabilization to the east, the severe
potential should decrease by midnight CDT.
