    Mesoscale Discussion 0949

    Areas affected...west-central into northeast MN

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

    Valid 300357Z - 300500Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms may continue to develop and intensify. A
    severe thunderstorm watch will be considered contingent on
    additional increase in coverage and storms intensifying further.

    DISCUSSION...Radar mosaic and lightning data show thunderstorms
    developing near a southwest-northeast surface front over
    west-central MN. KABR and KMPX VAD data 40kt 1-2 km AGL flow with a
    LLJ terminus located over the Upper MS Valley. Surface temperatures
    over central MN are in the lower 80s degrees F with lower 70s
    dewpoints yielding a very unstable airmass (over 3000 J/kg MLCAPE)
    when accounting for nocturnal cooling with the 00Z MPX RAOB.

    The main limiting factors for severe thunderstorm development
    include (20-30kt 0-6 km shear) and the lack of strong deep ascent.
    Nonetheless, the environment is conditionally supportive of
    multicells capable of a risk for isolated severe hail/damaging
    gusts. Convective trends will be monitored in the short term.
