Strong to severe storms are possible on Tuesday from Nebraska into the Upper Midwest. ...Central Plains to Upper Midwest... An upper trough will move from the northern Plains to the Great Lakes on Tuesday. As this occurs, a swath of enhanced deep-layer southwesterly flow will overspread the Upper Midwest. At the surface, low pressure over Manitoba will continue east/northeast through the period, with a trailing cold front sweeping east across the northern/central Plains and Upper MS Valley. A moist airmass will be in place ahead of the front, and weak to moderate destabilization is forecast. Deep-layer flow will largely remain parallel to the surface boundary, but sufficient shear will be present for some storm organization. The north and east extent of severe potential is a bit uncertain given concern over inhibition/timing and modest instability. However, given the strength of deep-layer southwesterly flow, some severe risk should extend along the length of the surface front from the Upper Midwest into the central Plains. Damaging wind and hail will be the primary concern with this activity from late afternoon into the nighttime hours. ..Leitman.. 09/06/2026 $$
