    Areas affected...Far Eastern South Dakota...South-central Minnesota

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 548...

    Valid 280019Z - 280215Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 548
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The severe threat, associated with a convective complex
    from eastern South Dakota into south-central Minnesota, is expected
    to gradually shift eastward and southward across southern Minnesota
    over the next few hours. Although a brief tornado will be possible,
    large hail and wind damage are expected to be the primary threats. A
    new weather watch may need to be considered to the east of the
    current watch.

    DISCUSSION...Mosaic radar imagery currently shows an east-to-west
    cluster of strong to severe storms from near Watertown, South Dakota
    eastward to just west of Minneapolis, Minnesota. This relatively
    large cluster is located along a strong gradient of instability,
    which extends southeastward into northern Iowa. These storms are
    forecast to develop southeastward along this gradient over the next
    few hours. The eastern edge of the complex may also affect parts of
    far southeastern Minnesota and far western Wisconsin. Moderate to
    strong instability, along with 0-6 km in the 30 to 45 knot range
    according to the RAP and 00Z Minneapolis sounding, should support a
    continued severe threat. Supercells with isolated large hail will be
    possible. Wind damage will be likely within and near the faster
    moving bowing line segments.
