    Mesoscale Discussion 1377
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0312 AM CDT Tue Aug 28 2018

    Areas affected...Parts of southeastern South Dakota...northeastern Nebraska...northwestern Iowa...southern Minnesota

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 280812Z - 281045Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...Occasional storm intensification capable of producing
    severe hail may continue into daybreak near/west and southwest
    through east of Sioux Falls SD. A watch is not anticipated, but
    trends will continue to be monitored.

    DISCUSSION...The next in a series of short wave perturbations
    emerging from the Northwest is now progressing across Wyoming, and
    associated downstream lower/mid tropospheric warm advection is
    supporting ongoing increase in thunderstorm activity across the mid
    Missouri Valley. Activity appears focused roughly along a thermal
    gradient around the 700 mb level, on the northern periphery of a
    plume of elevated mixed-layer air emanating from the Great Basin.

    Storms are elevated above a cold front, with the surface-based
    stable layer likely to deepen further with the front forecast to
    continue surging southward across the mid Missouri Valley and
    central Plains through daybreak and beyond. While the front
    advances southward, forcing for convective development will continue
    to develop northeastward along the mid-level front into the 12-14Z
    time frame.

    With negligible risk for convection becoming rooted in a moist
    unstable boundary layer, severe weather potential appears limited.
    However, given the presence of strong shear and CAPE up to around
    1500 J/kg in the convective layer, periodic stronger storm
    development accompanied by a risk for severe hail may persist
    several more hours, before the quality of elevated moisture return
    begins to wane resulting in weakening destabilization.
