PUBLIC SEVERE WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0351 PM CDT SUN JUN 26 2011

...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED OVER PARTS OF THE NORTHERN PLAINS
THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT...

THE NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER IN NORMAN OK IS FORECASTING THE
DEVELOPMENT OF A FEW TORNADOES...LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS OVER
PARTS OF THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND MID MISSOURI VALLEY THIS AFTERNOON
AND TONIGHT.

THE AREAS MOST LIKELY TO EXPERIENCE THIS ACTIVITY INCLUDE

WESTERN IOWA
FAR NORTHEAST KANSAS
SOUTHWEST MINNESOTA
NORTHERN MISSOURI
MUCH OF NEBRASKA
MUCH OF SOUTH DAKOTA

ALTHOUGH THE COVERAGE OF THE SEVERE THREAT -- AND THE OVERALL
TORNADO POTENTIAL -- IS EXPECTED TO BE LESS THAN EARLIER
EXPECTED...THE THREAT FOR STORMS WITH LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS
ALONG WITH A COUPLE OF TORNADOES STILL EXISTS ACROSS THE NORTHERN
PLAINS.

STORMS HAVE DEVELOPED THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS NORTHERN NEBRASKA...AND
HAVE BEGUN TO EVOLVE INTO A BOWING MCS WHICH IS FORECAST TO SHIFT
SOUTHEASTWARD WITH TIME. HOWEVER...AFTERNOON RAOBS FROM THE REGION
INDICATE SUBSTANTIAL CAPPING...AND THUS MORE CELLULAR/SURFACE-BASED
CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT APPEARS LESS LIKELY ACROSS THE MID MISSOURI
VALLEY. AS A RESULT...TORNADO THREAT ALSO APPEARS LESS SUBSTANTIAL
ACROSS THIS AREA...WITH THE MAIN SEVERE THREAT LIKELY TO BE DAMAGING
WINDS AND LARGE HAIL. THOUGH THE CATEGORICAL RISK HAS BEEN
DOWNGRADED TO SLIGHT...FAIRLY WIDESPREAD WIND THREAT IS STILL A
POSSIBILITY.

STATE AND LOCAL EMERGENCY MANAGERS ARE MONITORING THIS DEVELOPING
SITUATION. THOSE IN THE THREATENED AREA ARE URGED TO REVIEW SEVERE
WEATHER SAFETY RULES AND TO LISTEN TO RADIO...TELEVISION...AND NOAA
WEATHER RADIO FOR POSSIBLE WATCHES...WARNINGS...AND STATEMENTS LATER
TODAY.
