Areas affected...Portions of eastern IA into northern IL and far
southern WI
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20
Valid 230705Z - 230930Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent
SUMMARY...The potential for large hail and damaging wind gusts may
increase over the next couple of hours as thunderstorms strengthen.
Watch issuance is possible.
DISCUSSION...Isolated thunderstorms have been festering over parts
of central into eastern IA over the past few hours in a weak
low-level warm advection regime. Recently, additional convection has
developed across eastern IA into northern IL and far southern WI as
a west-southwesterly low-level jet modestly strengthened. The 00Z
sounding from DVN and more recent RAP forecast soundings indicate
the presence of steepened mid-level lapse rates and strong elevated
instability across these areas. With recent mesoanalysis estimates
showing MUCAPE generally in the 2500-4000 J/kg range and around
30-35 kt of deep-layer shear, any thunderstorms that can persist
should be capable of producing severe hail. Convective evolution
remains uncertain early this morning, but there is some chance that
the mainly elevated ongoing activity becomes surface based
along/south of a warm front. If a small cluster can develop over the
next few hours, then a threat for damaging winds should also
increase given the large reservoir of buoyancy available. Possible
watch issuance will largely be tied to observational trends and
whether any cluster can develop and move east-southeastward along
the instability gradient.
