    Areas affected...portions of central North Dakota into northern
    South Dakota

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

    Valid 212159Z - 212330Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Large hail and severe gust potential will continue with
    ongoing storms over the next few hours. However, the severe threat
    is expected to remain more isolated and a WW issuance is not
    expected.

    DISCUSSION...Multicells and transient supercells have become
    established across portions of ND over the past couple of hours,
    with a more sustained supercell structure recently producing
    significant severe (2+ inch) hail. Forcing is subtle, as these
    storms are developing with the aid of a glancing weak 500 mb impulse
    now traversing the ND/MN border. RAP forecast soundings show
    elongated, rather straight hodographs amid 8-9 C/km tropospheric
    lapse rates, supporting organized storms structures capable of
    sustaining mid-level rotation. Given a well-mixed boundary layer
    extending up to 700 mb, severe gusts are also possible. The
    localized, isolated nature of the severe threat suggests that a WW
    issuance is currently not anticipated.

    Areas affected...Portions of southern New England

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 141352Z - 141545Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...The potential for damaging winds with a small cluster of thunderstorms remains unclear this morning. Trends will be monitored
    for possible watch issuance.

    DISCUSSION...A small cluster of thunderstorms ongoing over southern
    New England is probably tied to modest low-level warm advection and
    a subtle mid-level perturbation embedded within southwesterly flow
    aloft extending over much of the Northeast. The airmass downstream
    of this convection is not particularly unstable this morning, with
    considerable MLCIN still present per latest mesoanalysis estimates,
    and by modifying the 12Z OKX sounding for current surface
    observations. Even so, enhanced mid/upper-level flow noted on the
    VWP from KBOX is contributing to around 30-40 kt of deep-layer
    shear, which should continue to foster updraft organization with the
    cluster as it moves eastward across parts of southern New England
    over the next couple of hours. The main uncertainty is whether the
    ongoing thunderstorms will remain slightly elevated, or become
    surface based with additional daytime heating and modest increases
    in boundary-layer instability. If the cluster can become surface
    based, then scattered damaging winds would be possible across parts
    of CT, RI, and MA. While not immediately likely, convective trends
    will be closely monitored for possible watch issuance this morning.
