Mesoscale Discussion 0966
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1231 PM CDT Mon Jun 22 2020
Areas affected...Mid Missouri Valley
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 221731Z - 222000Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent
SUMMARY...Large hail and damaging winds are possible with storms as
they develop across southern South Dakota into central/eastern
Nebraska this afternoon. While the severe threat may be relatively
isolated/marginal, convective trends will continued to be monitored
for a possible watch issuance.
DISCUSSION...In the wake of a cold front that pushed through
yesterday, another cold front is moving slowly southward across the
northern Plains and is currently analyzed from southwest South
Dakota through northern Iowa. An upper-level trough continues to
slowly move eastward across south-central Canada with low amplitude
shortwave troughs rotating around the base of it. Current water
vapor imagery shows one of those low amplitude shortwave troughs
over central South Dakota. This along with daytime heating in a
relatively moist airmass (dewpoints near 60 F) and low-level lifting
associated with the cold front, storms are developing in far
southern South Dakota. Additionally, a building Cu field
south-southeast of the storms indicates ongoing destabilization.
Storms will move southeastward with time with new storms likely
developing downstream in portions of central/eastern Nebraska. While
shear is low-end for supercells, MLCAPE 1000-2000 J/kg should yield
some robust updrafts and storm organization. There is potential for
upscale growth into a QLCS, which would increase the wind threat
across eastern Nebraska/vicinity. Convective trends will be
monitored closely this afternoon.
