Areas affected...parts of central South Dakota
Concerning...Tornado Watch 406...
Valid 280146Z - 280345Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 406 continues.
SUMMARY...A cluster of storms may continue to pose a risk for strong
to severe wind gusts across much of central South Dakota through
10-11 PM CDT.
DISCUSSION...Forcing for ascent associated with weak short wave
troughing progressing through 30-40 kt difluent, southwesterly flow
around 500 mb may maintain northeastward progression of an ongoing
cluster of storms across much of central South Dakota, despite
increasing inhibition for moist boundary-layer parcels. The
corridor of stronger potential instability (from which updraft
inflow is emanating) is narrow, but Rapid Refresh suggests it may be
developing slowly eastward. It still probably will be overtaken by
the convective outflow somewhere across central into eastern South
Dakota, leading to at least gradual weakening of convection.
However, until then, convection will probably continue to pose a
risk for strong to severe wind gusts.
