We are monitoring for expansion in areal coverage, in which case a watch could be needed. DISCUSSION...Within a steep midlevel lapse rate environment, an area of midlevel convection moving out of northeast SD has erupted into a large supercell, currently ongoing over west-central MN. This cell is firmly within an 850 mb theta-e advection zone, with strong overall instability in this axis. While the surface air mass just south/southeast of this cell may contain CIN initially, the combination of heating and eventual outflow production may result in additional development along the southwest flank. Indeed, latest visible satellite images indicate new towers extending southwestward across the MN/SD border, which could be developing just above the surface. At the very least, it indicates unstable inflow into the existing cell/developing complex, with some possibility of expansion. Given the robustness and size of this isolated storm, a watch cannot be ruled out, but is more likely if the overall size/coverage can increase in the near term. ...Jewell/Guyer.. 07/27/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_YXxuymJRXlfBWCAQhiIFWXEEM0YM-J7olYBgzDvyykk_dmxcVWqdlwBxRpRdtlB8TSzz2YrJ= 6SKGo443iMAiLETRW8$ for graphic product...
