Valid 140017Z - 140145Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 488 continues. SUMMARY...The threat for severe hail/wind continues across WW 488, and may spread east/southeast of the watch with time. Local expansion of the watch may be considered, but the need for new downstream watch issuance remains uncertain. DISCUSSION...At 0015 UTC, several supercells are ongoing across central/southern MN, with a few isolated reports of golf ball to baseball size hail noted with the strongest storms. Low-level moisture remains modest at best across all but southwest MN, but midlevel lapse rates are sufficiently steep for MLCAPE of 1000-1500 J/kg. Unidirectional westerly wind profiles with effective shear of 30-40 kt will remain supportive of splitting supercells this evening, with a continued threat of large hail and localized damaging winds.=20 An eventual weakening trend is expected as nocturnal cooling/stabilization commences across the region, and outflow emanating from an earlier storm cluster across IA stabilizes part of southeast MN. However, some severe threat may spread east/southeast out of WW 488. Local watch expansion may be considered depending on convective trends, but the need for new downstream watch issuance is uncertain at this time. ...Dean/Guyer.. 07/14/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!7uM10H5L6NHBb5ROJk78shtp3Ddq-k9IOjm5HHLHzbWngNgkin78d2ofQ6b5gZAJNrPC68Ip0= nIjJ5rBVWpnMmNyz8Y$ for graphic product...
