Areas affected...portions of far eastern Montana into central North
Dakota

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

Valid 252343Z - 260145Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

SUMMARY...The severe threat may increase into the evening in tandem
with storm coverage, especially if MCS upscale growth occurs. Severe
hail may accompany discrete storms, with severe wind occurring with
more linear structures.

DISCUSSION...A supercell is in progress across east-central MT, with
more multicellular storms in progress to the northeast, along the
MT/ND border. These storms continue to advance eastward amid a more
moist, unstable, less capped airmass, characterized by 3000-4000
J/kg MLCAPE. A weak 500 mb vort max embedded in the larger scale
mid-level flow is currently traversing central MT, and as it
advances eastward, it may encourage an increase in storm coverage.
Despite weaker vertical wind shear, enough buoyancy is in place to
support a severe threat. The ongoing, more discrete storms may pose
a threat for severe hail. Severe gusts may occur with any storms,
but may become more likely if storm mergers occur, or if an MCS can
develop. A WW issuance is possible, especially if signs of upscale
growth are observed.
