    Areas affected...Parts of eastern Nebraska into western Iowa and
    north central/northeastern Kansas

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely=20

    Valid 122326Z - 130130Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent

    SUMMARY...Increasing and intensifying thunderstorm development
    appears probable as early as 7-8 PM CDT, before evolving into an
    organizing squall line with severe wind gusts becoming the most
    prominent hazard later this evening.

    DISCUSSION...Deepening high-based convective development is ongoing
    within a narrow pre-cold frontal corridor of strong boundary-layer
    heating/ and deeper mixing to the west of the dryline. As the
    primary upstream short wave trough gradually pivots
    north-northeastward across the northern high plains into early
    evening, models suggest that the eastward surging cold front will
    begin to overtake dryline by 00-01Z, leading to intensifying
    thunderstorm development. This appears likely to occur with
    increasing inflow of moist/unstable air into the convective
    updrafts, probably initially along a line (roughly) from the Sioux
    City IA area southward through Lincoln NE, before advancing east of
    the Missouri River and continuing to develop south-southwestward
    into north central/northeastern Kansas.=20=20

    Shear is strong and supportive of an organizing squall line, with an
    initial severe hail risk transitioning to primarily the risk for
    severe wind gusts. However, supercell structures will probably
    evolve within the line, and could, perhaps, pose a risk of producing
    a tornado or two.

    Areas affected...Southeast Minnesota...Northeast Iowa...Southwestern
    Wisconsin

    Concerning...Severe potential...Severe Thunderstorm Watch likely=20

    Valid 042234Z - 050000Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

    SUMMARY...Severe thunderstorm watch will likely be warranted in the
    next one to two hours to account for expected increase in robust
    thunderstorms across the upper Mississippi Valley.

    DISCUSSION...Strong low-level warm advection remains focused across
    the upper MS Valley early this evening. Warming/moistening near
    850mb is contributing to an increasingly buoyant profile atop very
    cool boundary layer north of the front. Forecast soundings exhibit
    very steep mid-level lapse rates with latest NAM suggesting upwards
    of 3000 J/kg MUCAPE if lifting a parcel near 850mb. Latest thinking
    is elevated convection will begin to develop across northeast IA
    then spread/develop downstream. Large hail should occur with the
    strongest convection and this warrants a severe thunderstorm watch.

    Areas affected...northeast Nebraska and northwest Iowa

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 118...

    Valid 161903Z - 162030Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 118 continues.

    SUMMARY...The hail and tornado threat persists in tornado watch 118.

    DISCUSSION...Convection has been confined mostly near the surface
    low this morning and early afternoon beneath cool air aloft. Storms
    which have formed in the vicinity of this boundary have had several
    reports of tornadoes from what appears to be both mini-supercell and non-supercell processes. The Pacific Front seems to have arrived
    which should lead to an acceleration east this afternoon. A few
    tornadoes may occur as the storms continue east given the veered
    flow near the surface low.=20

    Across northwest Iowa, deepening cumulus has developed along the
    dryline with the first thunderstorm in Carroll County. Low-level
    flow has become mostly unidirectional on the KDMX VWP where winds
    are more southerly. However, ahead of this storm, east-southeasterly
    surface winds are present which should increase low-level SRH.
    Therefore, if this storm continues to mature, it should pose a
    threat for both large hail and a tornado or two.
