Valid 050536Z - 050700Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 668 continues. SUMMARY...Thunderstorm gusts of 45-60 mph remain possible the next 1-2 hours, though a localized more intense gust or two may occur as well. DISCUSSION...A well developed bow will continue to shift northeast from northeast ND into northwest MN before crossing the international border in the next couple of hours. Surface observations suggest much of this activity is to the cool side of a warm front draped across northwest MN. Nevertheless, convection will move through a corridor of around 1000 J/kg MUCAPE, 40+ kt effective shear magnitudes, and midlevel lapse rates around 7 C/km. This should continue to support organized convection. In addition to convection being on the cool side of the surface boundary, boundary-layer cooling leading to strong low-level CINH has likely rendered storms to be elevated. Recent measured surface observations of 47 kt at KDVL and 47 kt at KRDR highlight the transition toward more elevated convection struggling to overcome strong boundary-layer inhibition compared to earlier, more intense gusts. However, a gust to 67 kt at KGFK suggests localized intense gusts may continue in the short term. Overall, expect more broad area of thunderstorm gusts to around 45-60 mph to continue for another 1-2 hours as the line of storm approaches the international border. Gusty winds may continue behind the line of convection in the wake-low region. ...Leitman.. 09/05/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!9gCohISkf6hwyOlw6Ap7J2RPkKZrWXRv3RDtto4yHBcXtlS0Is2q0kVl6G_ctp-l8c5bo6aVn= SaebLpN9n-ozWXCVbI$ for graphic product...
