Locally severe thunderstorms may also eventually spread into south-central WI towards this evening. DISCUSSION...Water-vapor imagery shows the mid-level low over the north-central Great Plains gradually moving towards the upper MS Valley. Strong large-scale ascent has overspread the northern periphery of the warm sector over north-central IA. Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms will likely spread downstream towards the northeast within an adequately unstable (500-1500 J/kg MUCAPE) and strongly sheared environment to the north of the warm front. As this surface-based thunderstorm activity over northern IA moves across and north of the warm front, the storms will become elevated but a few of the stronger storms may pose a risk for large hail. At this time the threat appears localized but convective trends will be monitored. ...Smith/Hart.. 03/31/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!4m78LmrfYj5vlcjiP1kHtm0EaMYkHL3NkL7uMREiOFAX0EfRa1BA09mRHZESJZSOB-Lz9XjKg= MSLzh9RbBhPY4Hm9kU$ for graphic product...
