Concerning…Severe Thunderstorm Watch 427…
Valid 171012Z – 171215Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 427
continues.
SUMMARY…A corridor of strong to severe gusts around 50-65 mph
remains possible this morning across far southeast Minnesota into
far northeast Iowa and west-central Wisconsin.
DISCUSSION…A cluster of storms near a surface boundary across
southeast MN will continue to track east around 40 mph. This
activity has produced gusts up to 67 mph recently. The downstream
environment remains very moist and unstable, and a southwesterly
low-level jet around 25-30 kt should further aid in maintenance for
strong to severe convection the next couple of hours as storms
approach the MS River.
