    Mesoscale Discussion 1369
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    1149 AM CDT Mon Aug 27 2018

    Areas affected...northeast Nebraska...southeast South
    Dakota...northwest Iowa...and into southern Minnesota

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

    Valid 271649Z - 271845Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Storms have increased a bit from the northeast Nebraska
    vicinity northeast into southwest Minnesota, with risk for marginal
    hail possible. The need for WW issuance, however, still appears to
    be a couple of hours off.

    DISCUSSION...The latest surface analysis depicts a surface front
    extending from northeast Minnesota southwest across southeast South
    Dakota, to a weak frontal wave analyzed in northeast Nebraska.
    Water vapor imagery shows ascent -- associated with a short-wave
    trough exiting northeast Colorado -- spreading into eastern South Dakota/eastern Nebraska, which has supported some new cell
    development as well as updraft strengthening within the ongoing band
    of convection from eastern Nebraska into southwest Minnesota. The
    storms appear to be limited to the cool side of the boundary at this
    time, and thus hail likely would be the primary severe risk with a
    stronger updraft or two, in the short term.

    Eventually, the moist/destabilizing airmass near and ahead of the
    surface front in conjunction with increasing ascent will allow
    surface-based convection to take root, possibly evolving out of the
    existing northeast Nebraska convection. With the deep-layer wind
    field expected to increase with time in conjunction with afternoon destabilization, the evolution toward surface-based storms should
    eventually pose an increasing wind/hail risk, that will likely
    require WW issuance. At this point, that evolution appears to be a
    couple of hours in the future, but will continue to monitor
    short-term trends with respect to ongoing convection, for any
    possibility that WW issuance may become needed sooner rather than
    later.
