Valid 161220Z - 161345Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 595 continues. SUMMARY...Some threat for locally damaging wind and isolated hail may continue into mid morning. DISCUSSION...An earlier compact bowing MCS has largely weakened this morning across southern/central MN, after encountering extensive preceding convection. A larger and more loosely organized MCS is ongoing, aided in part by the remnant cold pool from the earlier system. Favorable MUCAPE (2000-3000 J/kg) will help to maintain the ongoing convection as it moves into western WI, though low-level stability and strong MLCINH is expected to keep the short-term damaging-wind threat rather isolated. Isolated hail also cannot be ruled out with the strongest embedded cores.=20 While cloudiness is extensive across the region, modest diurnal heating may eventually allow for some intensification along the southern and eastern periphery of the ongoing convection with time. However, a more substantial uptick in the organized severe threat may not evolve until late this morning or into the afternoon. In the short term, WW issuance downstream of WW 595 is unlikely, unless notable intensification occurs over the next 60-90 minutes. ...Dean/Hart.. 08/16/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!4wUaLY77Z9odt5jK3WBn6kiyThf8ZMLiAW7nGHm8DOab1Tan3x4wlewN5alMBqCgYeknqqd_t= HY0IFnkzfZc6nHRzPQ$ for graphic product...
