   Areas affected...northwest and central SD

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 332...

   Valid 060415Z - 060515Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 332
   continues.

   SUMMARY...Strong to localized severe gusts (50-65 mph) are possible
   over the next hour or two across northwest and central parts of SD.

   DISCUSSION...A squall line with a history of severe gusts from
   southwestern SD the past few hours continues to move northeast
   across parts of northwest SD arcing to the southeast over
   south-central SD.  KPHP recently observed a gust of 28 kt at 0345z
   but decaying thunderstorms were in the vicinity.  KRCA observed a
   53-kt gust in the past hour with vigorous thunderstorms and a
   water-laden portion of the convective line.  Surface observations in
   the areas downstream of the squall line have cooled into the 70s deg
   F.  It appears the remaining severe risk may concentrate and become
   increasingly localized in the vicinity of the deeper convective
   cores as the boundary layer continues to become less unstable.  As
   such, strong to locally severe gusts are possible over the next 1-2
   hours but the coverage and intensity of the gusts will likely lessen
   during this time.  An additional severe thunderstorm watch will
   likely not be needed downstream of severe thunderstorm watch 332.
