    Areas affected...portions of central North Dakota

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 448...

    Valid 210304Z - 210430Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 448 continues.

    SUMMARY...A derecho should continue over the next few hours. 75-100
    mph winds remain a concern, and a few mesovortex-generated tornadoes
    are possible.

    DISCUSSION...A mature, intense bow echo is rapidly propagating
    eastward across central ND at around 70 kts, and is traversing a
    baroclinic boundary, where over 4000 J/kg MLCAPE and 60-80 kts of
    effective bulk shear is present. Furthermore, these shear vectors
    are oriented normal to the bow echo. Several measured 75-100 mph
    gusts have occurred, and given the preceding ambient conditions and
    baroclinic boundary, this bow echo will likely continue producing significant-severe gusts over the next few hours. A derecho is in
    progress, so 60+ mph winds should also be occurring on a more
    widespread basis, as suggested by many surface observations. The
    best chance for scattered significant-severe gusts will be in close
    proximity to mesovortices, specifically where mesovortex winds align
    with the rear-inflow jet. A few tornadoes also cannot be ruled out
    with the mesovortices.
