Areas affected...portions of northern into central Nebraska
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible
Valid 182159Z - 182330Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent
SUMMARY...Severe threat may be increasing across parts of northern
into central NE. Convective trends are being monitored closely and a
watch may be needed within the next 1-2 hours.
DISCUSSION...Convection continues to increase across parts of north
central NE into central SD late this afternoon. Visible satellite
shows a large cumulus field across central NE with dewpoints in the
mid 60s to near 70 F, resulting in moderate instability. Surface
analysis indicates a surface trough/pre-frontal confluence zone from
near Oglala-Lakota County SD south-southeast toward south-central
NE. An intense cell in Pennington County tracking south-southeast
appears to be tracking into this confluence zone. While midlevel
lapse rates are lackluster, effective shear increases with
southeastward extent to around 30-40kt, with 0-3km shear around
25-30 kt noted on the LNX VWP. Hi-res guidance continues to suggest
that the Pennington County cell will continue southeastward and some
upscale growth is possible. As such, a severe thunderstorm watch may
be needed to the south of Tornado Watch 280. Convective trends will
be monitored closely over the next hour or so.
