    Mesoscale Discussion 1551
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0245 PM CDT Tue Oct 09 2018

    Areas affected...Far east Iowa...far northwest Illinois...southern
    Wisconsin

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 091945Z - 092145Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated damaging wind gusts and possibly a brief tornado
    may accompany the stronger storms. A WW issuance is not expected at
    this time.

    DISCUSSION...Isolated, small, relatively discrete storms have
    developed just south of a differential heating zone within the last
    1-2 hours, where temperatures have climbed into the 80s. A few of
    these storms have exhibited occasional low-level rotation (as was
    the case recently in Dubuque County, Iowa).

    With mid 60s dewpoints and modest lapse rates in place, up to 1000
    J/kg MLCAPE has recently been realized across the discussion area.
    Still, buoyancy is rather modest, as is deep-layer shear, with 35
    knots of effective bulk shear noted. Deep layer ascent and stronger
    low-level shear are currently located well upstream of the region
    and are not expected to arrive until later this afternoon/early
    evening. As such, in the short term, a few of the stronger cells may
    become organized, perhaps with brief periods of moderate to strong
    low-level rotation. A few marginally severe wind gusts may occur and
    a brief tornado cannot be ruled out.

    Given the isolated and marginal extend of the short term severe
    threat, a WW issuance is not expected at this time, though
    convective trends will be monitored for any increase in threat.
