Day 1 Convective Outlook

...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR PORTIONS OF
THE NORTHERN PLAINS...
...SUMMARY...
Thunderstorms with large hail, severe wind gusts, and potentially a
tornado or two are possible this evening primarily in parts of the
northern Plains.
...01Z Update...
The strongest storms this evening are ongoing in parts of the
Dakotas and far eastern Wyoming. The upper trough will continue to
provide forcing for ascent along with a modest increase in the
low-level jet. Storms have generally begun to grow upscale. Severe
wind gusts are likely the primary threat the remainder of the
evening. That being said, deep layer shear is strong enough to
support occasional supercell structures which would be capable of
large hail, potentially to around 2 inches. A tornado or two is
conditionally possible, but confidence is not overly high given the
amount of outflow and gradual increase in MLCIN anticipated.
Clusters of storms in the southern High Plains will remain capable
of isolated wind damage and hail. Some activity may be able to push
farther east this evening. Otherwise, isolated wind damage will be
possible for another hour or two with activity in Central Texas and
South Florida.
