    Areas affected...far eastern South Dakota and western Minnesota

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 474...

    Valid 290032Z - 290200Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 474 continues.

    SUMMARY...Several maturing supercells will pose an increasing risk
    for tornadoes this evening across far eastern SD into western MN. A
    strong tornado is also possible.

    DISCUSSION...Early this evening, several supercells have rapidly
    organized in the vicinity of the MN/SD border across Tornado Watch
    #474. The southern most of theses cells in Duel County, SD has
    recently become tornadic as observed from video streams and storm
    reports. As these supercells continue to mature and move east along
    a broad warm frontal zone, they will continue to interact with
    strong low-level shear (0-1 km SRH of 200 + m2/s2) observed from the
    MPX and FSD VADs. With large buoyancy (MLCAPE >4000 J/kg) also in
    place, the environment remains very supportive of supercells and
    tornadoes, some of which could be strong given observed STP values
    of 2-3. The tornado threat will remain highest with
    discrete/semi-discrete supercells. Some upscale growth remains
    possible later this evening, which could begin to limit the tornado
    threat. But for the time being, a favorable storm mode and
    environment suggest the threat for tornadoes is likely to increase
    across far eastern SD into western MN this evening.
