Subj : MESO: Mesoscale Discussion 1967 To : wx-storm@lists.illinois.edu From : COD Weather Processor Date : Wed Aug 21 2024 19:55:38 ACUS11 KWNS 211955 SWOMCD SPC MCD 211955=20 SDZ000-NEZ000-WYZ000-212100- Mesoscale Discussion 1967 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0255 PM CDT Wed Aug 21 2024 Areas affected...eastern WY into western SD/NE Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20 Valid 211955Z - 212100Z Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent SUMMARY...Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms may produce gusts of 55-70 mph and hail to 1.5 inches into this evening. Portions of the area may need a severe thunderstorm watch, but timing is uncertain. DISCUSSION...Convection is increasing across WY and western SD/NE this afternoon where strong heating into the 90s F has occurred. Boundary-layer moisture remains modest across much of the area, though 60s F dewpoints are noted into parts of SD. Cool temperatures aloft, aiding in steep midlevel lapse rates, are supporting weak to moderate instability across the region. High-based storms initially developing near higher terrain may pose a risk for strong outflow winds. Clustering may occur with eastward extent toward late afternoon/early evening as storms move into a more moist and unstable environment. Damaging gusts will be possible with this activity. Additionally, modest vertical shear amid a steep lapse rates environment could support a few instance of large hail in the 1-1.5 inch range with any stronger/longer-lived thunderstorm cores. The MCD area is being monitored for possible watch issuance this afternoon. ...Leitman/Hart.. 08/21/2024 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!4Lonk2b6fZ4RlDBew4T_N4gVY8b4FItS81ptMVk8h08EIuYNkehFDRiQhOJbr9kbxinMVsKBB= FLfhEoH-ToARRHAwIg$ for graphic product...
