    Mesoscale Discussion 0673
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0502 PM CDT Fri Jun 08 2018

    Areas affected...Southwest/south central South Dakota into north
    central Nebraska

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

    Valid 082202Z - 082330Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...A continuing increase in thunderstorm coverage and
    intensity seems likely through the 6-8 PM MDT time frame,
    accompanied by a risk for severe hail and wind. An additional
    severe weather watch probably will be issued within the next hour or
    so.

    DISCUSSION...Vigorous thunderstorms initiating south of Philip SD
    appear to be doing so within a zone of enhanced lower/mid
    tropospheric warm advection, roughly centered near the central
    Nebraska/South Dakota border area. This field is generally on the
    northeastern periphery of a plume of more strongly capping elevated mixed-layer, and may provide the focus for increasing storm
    development into the evening hours.

    Thermodynamic profiles across the region are characterized by steep
    mid-level lapse rates and moderate to large CAPE, supportive of
    intense updrafts, more than capable of producing severe hail, and
    the potential for strong downbursts and surface cold pool
    development. Deep layer mean flow is rather modest (southwesterly
    on the order of 20 kt), but veering of winds with height appear to
    be contributing to vertical shear at least marginally sufficient for
    organizing convective development.

    Into the the 00-02Z time frame, consolidating/upscale growing
    convection with merging cold pools appears possible, which may
    eventually evolve into an organized mesoscale convective system with
    more widespread strong surface gusts. If/when this occurs, the
    tendency should be for activity to propagate southeastward.
