0328 PM CDT Sun Sep 14 2025
Areas affected...eastern South Dakota...far western Iowa...far
northeastern Nebraska...far western Minnesota
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 142028Z - 142200Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent
SUMMARY...Marginal risk for wind and hail to continue this
afternoon.
DISCUSSION...Thunderstorm activity across portions of eastern South
Dakota into northern Nebraska has shown recent uptick in intensity,
with a few reports of severe gusts up to 50-60 mph near Watertown,
SD and Sioux City, IA. This activity is ongoing in the region of a
modest low-level jet and pocket of daytime heating where MLCAPE
around 1000-1500 J/kg is observed. For now, it appears this activity
will stay fairly widely scattered amid generally weaker shear
profiles and in the wake of the morning MCV, and as such a watch is
unlikely.
