    Mesoscale Discussion 1487

    0820 PM CDT Thu Sep 20 2018

    Areas affected...Far southeast Minnesota...northeast Iowa...most of
    Wisconsin

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 385...

    Valid 210120Z - 210315Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 385 continues.

    SUMMARY...Mainly a damaging wind threat continues with the squall
    line from northeast IA to west-central WI. A gradual weakening trend
    is expected over the next several hours.

    DISCUSSION...A squall line, located from east of EAU to CCY, is
    surging eastward into a cooler, more stable airmass. While up to
    1500 J/kg MLCAPE is present across the southernmost portions of the
    discussion area, buoyancy is expected to wane across the entire area
    with the onset of nocturnal cooling and associated stabilization of
    the boundary layer. Still, impressive shear profiles remain in place
    across the discussion area (50-60 knot effective bulk shear vectors
    normal to the squall line and 300+ m2/s2 effective SRH). As such,
    while an overall weakening trend is expected with the squall line
    over the next several hours, the threat remains for at least a few
    more severe wind gusts and possibly a brief QLCS tornado,
    particularly with portions of the squall line interacting with the
    warm front.
