The National Weather Force has issued a Severe T-Storm Advisory effective from 3 PM to 11 PM Central Time
Zones affected: central, southern, southeast, east MN; west, southwest, WI; north, northeast IA.
Discussion: Severe storms are expected to form later this evening due to an advancing cold front associated with a short-wave trough moving eastward. Ahead of the boundary, warm air advection combined with very strong instability and veering, strengthening shear will bring severe storms capable of producing very large hail and damaging winds. There is also a risk of isolated tornadoes, although this is less likely further south due to the warm front being situated further north. The main risks in the southern regions will be damaging winds and very large hail through the evening and overnight hours.
The main risk will continue to be very large hail and damaging winds. The highest concentration of tornado risk will be in northern portions of MN, where the warm front is anticipated to be.
For further details on the forecast behind it please check our outlook on the severe weather.
Main risk: very large hail, damaging winds, isolated tornado and CG (cloud to ground) lightning.
Stay tuned for more updates.
