A LARGE UPPER TROUGH WILL CONTINUE PROGRESSING EWD ACROSS THE NWRN
U.S. THIS PERIOD...WITH ASSOCIATED HEIGHT FALLS SPREADING SEWD
ACROSS THE N CENTRAL U.S. WITH TIME. FARTHER E...A WEAKER

CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT...BUT ONLY A LOW-PROBABILITY SEVERE THREAT.

...THE DAKOTAS INTO NWRN NEB/ERN WY...
MODEST BOUNDARY-LAYER MOISTURE COMBINED WITH AFTERNOON HEATING
PROGGED ACROSS THE NRN PLAINS SHOULD RESULT IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF
500 TO 1500 J/KG MIXED-LAYER CAPE AHEAD OF THE SLOWLY ADVANCING COLD
FRONT. WITH LARGE-SCALE HEIGHT FALLS/ASCENT OVERSPREADING THIS
REGION...THE FRONT SHOULD FOCUS AFTERNOON STORM DEVELOPMENT -- FROM
THE WRN DAKOTAS SWD INTO NEB...AND SWWD INTO ERN WY. STORMS SHOULD
THEN SPREAD SLOWLY EWD THROUGH THE EVENING...BEFORE WEAKENING
OVERNIGHT.

DESPITE THE ANTICIPATED CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT...DEEP-LAYER SHEAR IS
NOT FORECAST TO BE PARTICULARLY SUPPORTIVE OF WELL-ORGANIZED
STORMS...AS STRONGER FLOW ALOFT SHOULD REMAIN WELL TO THE COOL SIDE
OF THE SURFACE FRONT. THEREFORE...WILL MAINTAIN ONLY 5% SEVERE
PROBABILITY ACROSS THIS REGION THIS FORECAST...WITH ONLY A MARGINAL
HAIL/WIND EVENT EXPECTED ATTM.
