Areas affected…North-central Nebraska/south-central South Dakota
Concerning…Severe potential…Watch unlikely
Valid 292232Z – 292330Z
Probability of Watch Issuance…20 percent
SUMMARY…An isolated severe storm or two could materialize across
north-central Nebraska into far south-central South Dakota through
early evening.
DISCUSSION…Recent visible satellite imagery augmented by regional
radar data shows several attempts at convective development across
the region, including north-central Nebraska between the
O’Neill/Ord/Broken Bow areas, as well as farther northwest along the
South Dakota/Nebraska border vicinity near Valentine. This
development is focused near a warm front that extends
northwest/southeast across the region. The nearby warm-sector air
mass is relatively moist with negligible boundary layer inhibition
as temperatures have risen into the middle 80s across north-central
Nebraska.
While there remains short-term uncertainty regarding the likelihood
and coverage of mature/rooted thunderstorms, instability
characterized by 2500-3000 J/kg MLCAPE in conjunction with wind
profiles that are strong/veering with height (40 kt effective
shear) suggests there is least a conditional concern for
near-surface-based supercellular development and their related risks
near the warm front.
