    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 286...

    Valid 192200Z - 192330Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 286
    continues.

    SUMMARY...An organized wind threat is developing this
    afternoon/evening across northeastern Colorado, southwestern
    Nebraska, and northwestern Kansas. A Severe Thunderstorm Watch will
    be needed downstream of WW286.

    DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms across the eastern Nebraska Panhandle and northeastern Colorado are rapidly growing upscale and surging east-southeastward/eastward. Given the favorable environment
    downstream, characterized by steep lapse rates, over 2000 J/kg of
    MUCAPE, and 30-40 knots of effective bulk shear, continued upscale
    growth and organization is expected. In addition, the southerly
    low-level jet is expected to increase this evening across central
    Kansas, providing additional support for convective maintenance and organization. All factors are supportive of the development of a severe-wind-producing MCS, including potential for significant
    severe winds, over the next several hours.

    Areas affected...Far southeast Minnesota...northeast Iowa...and far
    western Wisconsin

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 293...

    Valid 202222Z - 210015Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 293
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The threat for damaging winds and severe hail will
    continue for the next 1-2 hours for WW 293. The greatest near-term
    risk will likely reside across northeast Iowa.

    DISCUSSION...A convective line continues to push eastward across
    southeast MN and northern/northeast IA. So far, wind reports have
    generally been sub-severe, but radar imagery from KMPX and KARX
    suggest pockets of damaging wind remain possible as cold pool
    organization continues. 0-3 km bulk shear in this region remains
    nearly orthogonal to the line with magnitudes between 20-30 knots,
    further supporting the idea of at least an isolated damaging wind
    threat.

    Although the line's eastward motion has phased well with the
    eastward progression of the surface low and viable warm sector,
    remnant stable outflow to the east across southern WI/northern IL
    may hinder storm intensity to some degree - especially north of an
    effective warm frontal boundary noted in recent surface obs. South
    of this boundary, the higher theta-e air mass should provide enough
    better instability to maintain storm intensity and the wind/hail
    threat into the evening hours.
