Valid 161926Z - 162100Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 517 continues. SUMMARY...The threat for tornadoes and damaging downbursts will continue for at least the next several hours across southern WI. DISCUSSION...Two lines of thunderstorms are currently progressing northeastward across southern WI. The easternmost line is associated with earlier warm-air-advection-initiated storms while the westernmost line is along the wind shift close to the surface low. The airmass across the entire region is characterized by ample low-level moisture, robust low-level instability (i.e. 0-3km MLCAPE over 100 J/kg), and strong surface vorticity. These conditions led to the development of several tornadic supercells within the leading line. This trend will likely continue within both of these convective lines for at least the next few hours. As such, the tornado threat continues. Damaging gusts from strong downdrafts and isolated hail are possible as well. ...Mosier.. 07/16/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!8VekfNhAv5EJMBRG7iC9jtGU4fYedzqam8xuog5LP0I6TRzF4L86KhPxgz53Lbj1SULJrdf-H= U8HFIlfkCDu0ffrZho$ for graphic product...
