Areas affected...Western North Dakota

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 464...

Valid 060238Z - 060415Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 464
continues.

SUMMARY...The potential for isolated severe hail and wind gusts will
persist through 04 UTC, but the overall threat should steadily
diminish with time.

DISCUSSION...Convection has struggled to maintain intensity over the
past couple of hours across western ND, and continuous convective
overturning has been gradually eroding MLCAPE based on mesoanalysis
estimates. Despite this, a few stronger updrafts continue to briefly
intensify to severe limits based on MRMS MESH estimates.
Additionally, at least isolated severe wind gusts have been observed
with some of the collapsing convection. Richer low-level moisture
along and north of Highway 23 has maintained some degree of
buoyancy, which may continue to allow occasional/isolated strong to
severe thunderstorms over the next couple of hours. However,
continued overturning and nocturnal stabilization should further
diminish buoyancy and steadily reduce the potential for severe
convection. Temporal extension of WW 464 beyond the scheduled 04 UTC
expiration will likely not be needed.
