    Areas affected...Montana

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 413...

    Valid 290016Z - 290215Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 413
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Severe wind gusts remain possible with convection across central/eastern MT this evening.

    DISCUSSION...Upper ridge is flattening and shifting east across the
    northern High Plain of MT this evening. Scattered convection
    initiated over southwestern MT earlier this afternoon and this
    activity has propagated downstream into an environment that is a bit
    more moist with a decidedly easterly boundary-layer component. While
    much of the convection has struggled to organize, a notable cluster
    of storms has evolved near LWT and appears to have some
    organizational character to it. Additionally, a narrow line of
    convection is advancing off the Beartooth Mountains and this
    activity may become more productive in generating wind as it
    propagates across south-central MT. Gusty winds, some in excess of
    50kt, have been noted with some of these storms and should continue
    for the next several hours given the steep lapse rates and ample
    shear for organized updrafts.

    Areas affected...Southwest SD...NE Panhandle...Central
    NE...Northwest/Central KS

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 270815Z - 271015Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms capable of large
    hail and damaging gusts will continue throughout the night.

    DISCUSSION...A moderate low-level jet, characterized by 850-mb wind
    speeds around 35 to 40 kt, extends from the TX Panhandle northward
    into southwest SD. Moderate low-level moisture exists within this
    corridor with surface dewpoints ranging from the low 60s across the
    TX Panhandle to the mid 50s across the NE Panhandle and southwest
    SD, and 850-mb dewpoints ranging from 18 deg C in the TX Panhandle
    to 13 deg C in southwest SD. This moisture lies beneath steep
    mid-level lapse rates, contributing to moderate to strong buoyancy.
    The low-level jet is expected to persist throughout the night, with
    some additional strengthening possible.=20

    Warm-air advection associated with this low-level jet, coupled with
    the favorable low-level moisture and moderate/strong buoyancy, is
    forecast to promote thunderstorm development throughout the night.
    Thunderstorm development will be favored along the outflow
    boundaries of the ongoing storms in the northern NE Panhandle and
    from southwest NE into central KS.=20

    Southerly low-level flow veers to more westerly aloft, supporting
    moderate to strong vertical shear across the entire region. Recent
    mesoanalysis shows a large area of 50 kt 0-6 km bulk shear across
    much of NE. Resulting combination of shear and buoyancy will support
    strong to severe storms. Large hail will be the primary threat,
    although some upscale growth is possible, and a few gusts could be
    strong enough to penetrate the low-level stability. Even so, overall
    severe coverage will be isolated and widely spaced, precluding the
    need for watch.
