    Areas affected...Parts of southeastern North Dakota and northeastern
    South Dakota

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 561...

    Valid 300233Z - 300400Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 561
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The severe threat continues across portions of
    southern/southeastern North Dakota and northern/northeastern South
    Dakota in Severe Thunderstorm Watch 561. The severe threat may
    spread eastward out of the watch, and a new watch or watch extension
    may be needed.

    DISCUSSION...An increasingly organized north/south-oriented MCS is
    tracking eastward across south-central ND and north-central SD at
    around 30-40 kt, while an additional cluster of storms to its east
    is drifting slowly northward within a warm-advection wing. The MCS
    is gradually merging/overtaking the eastern cluster. Ahead of these
    storms, 2500-3000 J/kg MLCAPE (sampled by the ABR 00Z sounding) will
    likely support the maintenance of this activity as it continues
    eastward. Additionally, the ABR 00Z sounding and recent KBIS VWP
    data indicate a long/straight hodograph -- characterized by around
    40 kt of westerly deep-layer shear. The combination of the favorable instability and shear vectors oriented perpendicular to the
    leading-edge gust front, should favor a continued organized/linear
    mode. Severe wind gusts to around 75 mph will be the primary
    concern.=20

    A downstream watch or watch extension may be needed.
