The convective evolution is highly uncertain and will be monitored for the potential of a severe-thunderstorm watch. DISCUSSION...Midlevel convection aided by warm-air advection has been percolating for a few hours in southwestern North Dakota. Recent intensification suggests that these storms may have started ingesting more unstable parcels originating near the surface.=20 Despite modest instability (~1000 J/kg MLCAPE), there is sufficient deep-layer shear (given the strong veering winds with height) to support organized rotating updrafts. In fact, some CAM solutions have indicated the potential for a couple of long-tracked supercells, though this scenario still remains highly uncertain. If sustained storms are able to develop, they would pose the threat of large hail and damaging winds. The situation will continue to be monitored for the need of a severe-thunderstorm watch. ...Jirak/Grams.. 07/29/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!9N2LxT9HLj6JSTj2EdaPGBtMnBAFGCPGIWW8PlCst-UF3b5F4RQtJaV6oiO-ilotR6ep2mkCb= ZoHyj3qSxRPRCtcAbs$ for graphic product...
