Watch issuance in the near-term is uncertain with increasing likelihood towards midday. DISCUSSION...A small but persistent cluster that has produced a focused swath of measured severe gusts across southwest into central SD has weakened in terms of reflectivity structure and IR cloud top warming. The downstream front has oscillated southward, suggesting that this cluster will persist to the cool side of this front and likely impinge on weak downstream convection towards the SD/ND/MN border area. Meanwhile, a west/east-oriented convective band emanating northward across southern SD has produced a couple measured severe gusts at mesonet sites. This convection will probably evolve more northeastward into late morning and could also congeal with the post-frontal convection to the north. Overall messy and complex convective mode, along with the time of day, suggests that severe potential may remain sporadic and disorganized. More positive cold pool merging could occur into western MN towards midday as greater downstream insolation occurs across central/southern MN. ...Grams/Gleason.. 07/23/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!4cJjhgeJFfKPQdaEHfXu0bcvpPdf5DflpJ5YrIDRQfMYAjF84LzxZoqgO155dEdLvNaq-emm9= 34cGFpFsVUody4GoZQ$ for graphic product...
