What was reported inside it

Time	Report	Where	Remark
Aug 13, 1:20 PM CDT	HAIL 0.88	1 W Prosper, ND

Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 13, 11:14 AM CDT, 1 hour 28 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND FORKS ND
1114 AM CDT MON AUG 13 2007

.UPDATE...
RAPID CHANGES ON THE FLY DUE TO THE ONGOING SEVERE WEATHER. NO
CHANGES TO PCPN CHANCES/ORIENTATION...BUT WILL NOW UPDATE SKY
COVER AND HIGH TEMPS. THICK CLOUD COVER FOR AT LEAST THE MORNING
HOURS WILL INHIBIT THE TEMP RISE FOR AREAS RIGHT ALONG AND JUST TO
THE SOUTH OF THE HIGHWAY 2 CORRIDOR...SO WILL ADJUST HIGH TEMPS
DOWN SOMEWHAT. HARD TO SAY HOW MUCH BECAUSE THERE COULD BE SOME
CLEARING/WARMING LATER IN THE DAY. AS FAR AS THE CONTINUED SEVERE
POTENTIAL...THERE IS ONLY ONE CELL THAT WE ARE WATCHING NOW (EDDY
COUNTY). THIS CELL IS ACTUALLY ON A DOWNWARD TREND RIGHT NOW. LOTS
OF UNCERTAINTY YET...SO WILL STICK WITH ISOLATED/SCATTERED TSTMS
FOR MOST AREAS INTO THE AFTERNOON.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 927 AM CDT MON AUG 13 2007/

UPDATE...
DID A QUICK UPDATE TO ADD SOME MORNING SEVERE WORDING TO THE KDVL
BASIN. STORMS ARE APPROACHING WESTERN BENSON AND TOWNER COUNTIES
BUT SO FAR ARE STAYING JUST TO THE WEST. SPC ALSO DISCUSSING A
WATCH POSSIBILITY FOR CENTRAL ND...BUT SO FAR IN A WAIT AND SEE
MODE. TSTMS ALSO DEVELOPING ALONG THE ND/SD BORDER...WHERE KBIS
HAS JUST ISSUED A SVR TSTM WARNING. UPDATED THE SOUTHERN FA TO ADD
SOME ISOLATED THUNDER AS WELL.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 334 AM CDT MON AUG 13 2007/

SHORT TERM...
MAIN ISSUE TODAY IS THUNDERSTORMS OR NO THUNDERSTORMS. AS COMPARED
TO 24 HRS AGO...THREAT FOR ANY ELEVATED LATE NIGHT CONVECTION HAS
SHIFTED WEST WITH BEST 800-850 MB INSTABILITY/MOISTURE ADVECTION
MORE OVER CNTRL ND ATTM. SATELLITE HAS SHOWN GRADUAL INCREASE IN
MID LEVEL CLOUD STREAKS OVER CNTRL ND IN AN AREA FROM ISN TO BIS-
JMS. NOTHING ON RADAR ATTM...BUT WOULD NOT BE SUPRISED TO SEE
SOMETHING FORM YET...PEAK TIME FOR FORMATION OFTEN IS 09-10Z
PERIOD. BUT BIG THING GOING AGAINST IT IS THAT THE ENTIRE 700-850
MB LAYER IS WARMING SO THAT LAPSE RATES ARE NOT THAT STRONG AND
ENOUGH WARMING AT 700 MB MIGHT BE THERE TO EFFECTIVELY CAP ANY
ELEVATED CONVECTION FROM BEING ROOTED NR 800 MB. WILL HAVE A 20
POP THRU 16Z FOR ANY ELEVATED CONVECTION MAINLY NORTHWEST HALF OF
THE CWA WEST OF A WAHPETON TO BJI LINE. WITH ADVANCE OF 850 MB
INSTABILITY AND MOISTURE SLOWER THAN PREV RUNS FEEL CAN LEAVE OUT
ANY LOW POP FROM WCNTRL MN AS SHOWALTERS REMAIN VERY STABLE THERE
THRU 18Z.

OUTSIDE OF ANY ELEVATED CONVECTION...MAIN ISSUE IS IF/WHERE
CONVECTION MIGHT FIRE WITH FRONT HAS IT MOVES THROUGH THIS
AFT/EARLY EVE. SOUNDINGS SHOW A VERY WARM LAYER 850-700 MB THAT
WILL TAKE A LOT OF WARMING AND SFC MOISTURE TO OVERCOME AND FEEL
THAT IT WILL BE VERY HARD TO DO SO. PER SWODY1 AND SPC WRF PCPN
GRAPHICS IDEA IS THAT SOME CONVECTION NOW FIRING IN NE MT MIGHT
RIDE THE CANADIAN BORDER OR JUST NORTH THRU THE DAY SO KEPT LOW
POPS GOING ALL DAY IN OUR FAR NORTH BUT REMOVED POPS TODAY FOR
AREAS SOUTH OF A DVL-GFK AND WEST OF FARGO THIS AFTN AS AIRMASS IS
JUST TOO CAPPED. VERY LATE THIS AFTN/EVE RIGHT ALONG FRONT IDEA
THAT CONVECTION MAY FIRE RAPIDLY ON EDGE OF CAP SOMEWHERE IN NORTH
CENTRAL INTO CNTRL MN AND THEN INCREASE AS IT MOVES SOUTHEAST. SPC
WRF WOULD HAVE INITIATION NR 01Z-02Z SOMEWHERE IN THEH WILLMAR-ST
CLOUD AREA AND THEN INCREASE RAPIDLY AS IT MOVES SOUTHEAST.
ANOTHER ISSUE IS THAT HIGHER DEW PTS AND TRUE WARM FRONT LOOK TO
REMAIN SOUTH OF THE AREA AND PERHAPS A BIT FARTHER SOUTH THAN
EARLIER THOUGHT. SWODY1 HIGHLIGHTS BEST CHC STC-MSP-LSE AREAS
EARLY EVE. THUS DID LOWER POPS BACK TO CHC CATEGORY FOR NW/WCNTRL
MN 21Z-00Z TIME PERIOD INSTEAD OF LIKELY.

ANOTHER ISSUE IS TEMPS. MAJOR FIRES GOING ON IN WRN MT/IDAHO ATTM
AND HAZY SMOKY SKY WILL BE OVER THE AREA AND THIS MAY CUT BACK ON
TEMPS SOME. TO REALIZE FULL INSTABILITY TEMPS WOULD HAVE TO RISE
WELL INTO THE 90S TO NEAR 100 AND DONT FEEL THIS WILL HAPPEN AND
DEW PTS OF MID 70S PER NAM12 ALSO SEEM HIGH WITH MORE MID TO UPR
60S MORE REASONABLE.

COOLER WEATHER MOVES IN ON TUESDAY BEFORE ANOTHER FRONT MOVES THRU
ON WEDNESDAY. KEPT WED DRY ATTM AS DEPTH OF MOISTURE LOOKS WEAK.

LONG TERM...
DID GO ALONG WITH GFS IDEA OF A PRETTY GOOD COOL SHOT HEADING
DOWN INTO THE AREA AS CANADIAN HIGH DRIFTS SOUTHEAST OVER NRN MN
BY THURSDAY. LOWERED PREV FCST TEMPS FOR WED NIGHT-FRI SOME.

AVIATION...
VFR TODAY WITH DEVELOPMENT OF AREAS OF MID CLOUDS THIS MORNING.
WINDS WILL INCREASE FROM THE SOUTHEAST AND BECOME A BIT GUSTY WITH
GUSTS 25 KTS OR SO PSBL THIS AFTN IN THE RED RIVER VALLEY. TSTM
CHANCE IS PRETTY LOW...WITH BEST CHC IN THE EARLY EVE AT BEMIDJI.
