THE NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER HAS ISSUED A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH FOR PORTIONS OF NORTHWEST IOWA SOUTHWEST MINNESOTA EASTERN NEBRASKA EXTREME SOUTHEAST SOUTH DAKOTA EFFECTIVE THIS SUNDAY AFTERNOON FROM 345 PM UNTIL MIDNIGHT CDT. HAIL TO 2 INCHES IN DIAMETER...THUNDERSTORM WIND GUSTS TO 80 MPH...AND DANGEROUS LIGHTNING ARE POSSIBLE IN THESE AREAS. THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH AREA IS APPROXIMATELY ALONG AND 75 STATUTE MILES EAST AND WEST OF A LINE FROM 55 MILES WEST NORTHWEST OF MANKATO MINNESOTA TO 45 MILES SOUTH SOUTHWEST OF HASTINGS NEBRASKA. FOR A COMPLETE DEPICTION OF THE WATCH SEE THE ASSOCIATED WATCH OUTLINE UPDATE (WOUS64 KWNS WOU4). REMEMBER...A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH MEANS CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN AND CLOSE TO THE WATCH AREA. PERSONS IN THESE AREAS SHOULD BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR THREATENING WEATHER CONDITIONS AND LISTEN FOR LATER STATEMENTS AND POSSIBLE WARNINGS. SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CAN AND OCCASIONALLY DO PRODUCE TORNADOES. OTHER WATCH INFORMATION...CONTINUE...WW 303... DISCUSSION...ALL INDICATIONS POINT TO THE INITIATION OF DEEP CONVECTION WITHIN ANOTHER HOUR OR SO. DEEP-LAYER VERTICAL SHEAR MAGNITUDES ON THE ORDER OF 40KT AND MLCAPE IN THE 1200-1800 J/KG RANGE WILL CONTRIBUTE TO ROBUST AND ORGANIZED STORM DEVELOPMENT. REMOVAL OF REMAINING INHIBITION ALONG THE FRONT WILL OCCUR AS DEEP-LAYER ASCENT OVERSPREADS THE REGION THROUGH THE EVENING. THIS SHOULD RESULT IN A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN STORMS ALONG THE FRONT AND NEAR THE TRIPLE LOW. AREAL COVERAGE OF THIS ROBUST DEVELOPMENT LENDS CONFIDENCE IN SEVERE WEATHER...ESPECIALLY LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS.

ONE POSSIBLE EXCEPTION WILL BE NEAR THE TRIPLE POINT LOW/FRONT WAVE IN THE SWRN PORTION OF THE WATCH. UPDRAFT STRETCHING...STORM INTERACTIONS...AND THE POTENTIAL FOR VERY LOCALIZED AREAS OF ENHANCED SR FLOW/HELICITY NEAR THE TRIPLE POINT LOW COULD FAVOR A BETTER CHANCE AT A TORNADO IN THIS AREA.
