    Mesoscale Discussion 1440
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0523 PM CDT Sun Sep 09 2018

    Areas affected...North-central South Dakota into eastern North
    Dakota

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 092223Z - 100030Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Scattered storms are likely to develop between 00-03Z over
    eastern North Dakota into north-central South Dakota, with large
    hail the primary threat. A few damaging wind gusts cannot be ruled
    out.

    DISCUSSION...Visible imagery shows CU increasing near the surface
    trough from Carrington, ND to Mobridge, SD, near the instability
    axis. Heating beneath steep lapse rates aloft have combined with low
    60s F dewpoints to produce MLCAPE of 2000-2500 J/kg (removing the
    bad dewpoint observations over ND), which will support vigorous
    updrafts as storms initiate. Wind profiles are relatively weak,
    though veering with height, suggesting mixed storm mode. The
    greatest risk for a few severe storms will be where it has heated
    into the mid 80s F, from southeast ND extending into SD. Here,
    southerly 850 mb flow increasing to 25 kt and may support an
    isolated, right-moving cell or two capable of hail to around golf
    ball size.
