This will be accompanied by a risk for large hail and perhaps a tornado, before strong wind gusts becomes the more prominent hazard this evening. DISCUSSION...Downstream of a developing low over central Minnesota, a focused new area of thunderstorm development to the southwest of Duluth appears largely rooted within ascent associated with lower/mid-tropospheric warm advection. Models suggest that this will generally be maintained through the remainder of the afternoon, as the leading edge of a narrow plume of more substantive low-level moisture return occurs on south-southwesterly flow across southwestern through east central Minnesota. It appears that this will become supportive of rapid boundary-layer destabilization characterized by mixed-layer CAPE increasing in excess of 2000 J/kg, on the southwestern periphery of the initial elevated storm development.=20=20 While this also may tend to coincide with warming and increasingly capping mid-level air advecting from southwest to northeast across the upper Mississippi Valley vicinity, it appears that a window of opportunity may exist for rapidly intensifying boundary-based thunderstorm development. Beneath 30-50 kt westerly mid-level flow, this may include an isolated supercell or two. Before subsequently tending to grow upscale into an organizing cluster, this activity may pose a risk for large hail and perhaps a tornado. ...Kerr/Guyer.. 06/28/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!9xx2bFNM9EjL0zYRX7sMfiIk_iPTtwT2Wtb70BAbiFAWvk7r7wj-yT4MDAelUSO3tFgoMib9z= __yDbU58FrCf3JXDfo$ for graphic product...
