Severe hail and wind are the primary threats, though a tornado or two are also possible. A WW issuance will likely be needed in the next couple of hours. DISCUSSION...A surface low is gradually deepening across central SD as a mid-level trough approaches from the west. Ample diurnal heating has supported temperatures rising into the mid to upper 80s, boosting MLCAPE to 3000+ J/kg (given 7-8 C/km mid-level lapse rates atop 70 F surface dewpoints), which is also contributing to eroding MLCINH. Cumulus have recently developed along a line from roughly Hyde County, SD to Rock County, NE ahead of an eastward advancing dryline. Current thinking is that storm initiation should take place over the next few hours. Forecast soundings and the latest ABR VAD shows hodographs with low-level curvature and mid-level elongation, suggesting that supercells may be the initial mode of convection before upscale growth into an MCS occurs. Severe hail and wind will be the primary threats with supercells, and a tornado or two will be possible. Should MCS upscale growth occur, then severe winds will become the primary concern. ...Squitieri/Guyer.. 08/10/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!4_P5JvOc8LPg9l5G0VSEZxSCh-_v5HzSsgffJeAPQa9TzH4Te9K-9ZGO9tBKSqtE57Z5ttCpA= v1OdSROLb1Bt-hND10$ for graphic product...
