A downstream tornado watch may be needed within the hour. DISCUSSION...As of 1905 UTC, regional radar imagery showed a cluster of supercells ongoing from eastern IA and northwestern IL. The downstream airmass over northern IL and southern WI is rapidly destabilizing ahead of the storms. SPC mesoanalysis shows MLCAPE around 500-1000 J/kg is developing as surface dewpoints approach 60 F. Very strong low-level shear from the DVN VAD/VWP (200-300 0-1km SRH) will shift eastward favoring a supercell mode. HRRR model guidance shows multiple supercells moving into portions of northern IL, southern WI, and eventually northwest IN. The storm mode and favorable environment suggests a risk for all hazards. A strong/long track tornado will also be possible with the more dominate supercells. A new Tornado Watch may be needed shortly. ...Lyons/Hart.. 03/31/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_rVof_VA-ixhSRvx6Aap8UsQvTCoDa96ilMGM9aL5V6XJ37TQZn-z5W8nhpiGB7nnSNXz0_FL= TUPEAjl0iuAQfh22WU$ for graphic product...
