Areas affected...east-central South Dakota

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 439...

Valid 022041Z - 022215Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 439
continues.

SUMMARY...A cluster of supercells will continue slowly eastward this
afternoon and evening.

DISCUSSION...Very large hail (up to 3 inches) and brief tornadoes
have been reported with the supercell that began in Brule county and
has moved slowly northeastward. The tornado threat will likely
remain as this supercell moves along the stalled outflow boundary.
The cluster of supercells from the west is moving eastward quickly
and will likely overtake this supercell within the hour. Additional
convection to the south (with a recent measured 69 mph wind gust)
indicates the potential for additional development and some upscale
growth. If this occurs and the cluster accelerates east/southeast,
watch 439 may need to be expanded.
