   ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS CENTRAL
   NORTH DAKOTA...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Isolated hail is possible across central North Dakota. No severe
   thunderstorms are expected elsewhere.

   ...01Z Outlook Update...
   As discussed in MCD 1433, isolated hail is possible within the
   strong thunderstorms west of BIS in ND. These storms formed in a
   spatial limited area of moderate instability along the surface
   trough and the general expectation is for them to persist for the
   next hour or two before dissipating. A small 5% hail area was added
   to this outlook to account for the isolated severe risk these storms
   may pose for the next few hours.

   Additionally, probabilities were removed across the Northeast, where
   the outflow has now moved offshore and the general thunder line was
   modified based on recent observational trends and the latest
   guidance. A few strong gusts were observed across MD but recent
   radar trends suggest this activity has now weakened.
