    Mesoscale Discussion 1756
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0319 PM CDT Tue Jul 22 2025

    Areas affected...portions of southeast North Dakota and northeast
    South Dakota

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

    Valid 222019Z - 222215Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Strong to severe thunderstorms are possible into early
    evening. Hail and strong gusts may occur with stronger storms.

    DISCUSSION...Scattered thunderstorms have developed this afternoon
    within the post-outflow airmass. While early day convection and
    cloud cover have impacted the airmass to some degree, some recovery
    is apparent as temperatures have warmed into the upper 70s to low
    80s and dewpoints have been maintained in the upper 60s to low 70s.
    As a result, capping is eroding, and MLCAPE has increased to
    1000-2000 J/kg. Ongoing storms may be somewhat elevated initially,
    but could become surface-based with time. Effective shear magnitudes
    greater than 40 kt and steep midlevel lapse rates suggests robust
    updrafts supporting isolated large hail and strong/severe gusts will
    be possible. Given the influence of outflow and modification of the
    airmass from morning convection, convective evolution remains
    somewhat uncertain. Portions of the area may eventually need a
    severe thunderstorm watch, but timing and location is uncertain.
