CANCELLED BURLEIGH...MORTON...GRANT...SIOUX AND SHERIDAN COUNTIES
WITH THIS UPDATE. OVERALL...ONGOING CONVECTION ACROSS SOUTH
CENTRAL NORTH DAKOTA AS OF 240 UTC IS BEHIND THE COLD
FRONT/OUTFLOW. THIS IS PLACING A LIMIT ON THE UTILIZATION OF THE
MODERATE TO STRONG INSTABILITY THAT IS IN PLACE. THAT SAID...THE
SEVERE THREAT REMAINS FOR THE JAMES RIVER VALLEY...ESPECIALLY IF
CONVECTION CAN ORGANIZE INTO A LINE AND/OR IF ANY SURFACE BASED
CONVECTION CAN INITIATE ALONG THE BOUNDARIES BEFORE THE BOUNDARY
LAYER SUFFICIENTLY DECOUPLES.

UPDATE ISSUED AT 845 PM CDT THU JUL 23 2015

QUICK UPDATE TO CLEAR THE MAJORITY OF COUNTIES OF SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM WATCH 448 BEHIND THE ONGOING STRONG TO SEVERE
CONVECTION BASED ON RADAR TRENDS THROUGH 130 UTC. BASED ON THESE
TRENDS...AND THE 23-00 UTC HRRR...A CONTINUED CONGEALING OF
CONVECTION INTO A LINE IS EXPECTED ACROSS THE JAMES AND INTO THE
RED RIVER VALLEYS LATE THIS EVENING. MUCAPE VALUES OF 2500-4500
J/KG ARE EXPECTED TO PERSIST FOR THESE AREAS FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL
HOURS...WITH PERHAPS AN INCREASE IN DEEP LAYER SHEAR WITH LOW
LEVEL JET ONSET. THUS...THE SEVERE THREAT

.SHORT TERM...(THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY AFTERNOON)

ISSUED AT 200 PM CDT THU JUL 23 2015

FORECAST HIGHLIGHTS IN THE SHORT TERM PERIOD WILL BE STRONG TO
SEVERE CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING CENTRAL AND EAST.

CURRENTLY...UPPER RIDGE AXIS MOVING OFF TO OUR EAST REPLACED WITH
SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. SFC TROUGH/FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS OVER WESTERN
NORTH DAKOTA NOW WITH WINDS WEST OF THE FROPA ACROSS THE FAR WEST
OUT OF THE NORTH OR WEST. SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS AHEAD. DEWPOINTS ARE
VERY MOIST EAST OF THE FRONT UPPER 60S TO LOW 70S...AND WHEN
COMBINED WITH MID 80S AND LOW 90S FOR TEMPERATURES RESULTS IN
HEAT INDEX VALUES RIGHT NOW IN THE LOW TO MID 90S. CLOUD COVER
NORTHWEST WITH SUNNY SKIES ACROSS THE REST OF NORTH DAKOTA
ENABLING INSTABILITY UPWARDS TO 4-5K J/KG.

ROBUST CONVECTION EXPECTED TO BEGIN 19-21Z WEST OF HIGHWAY
83...THEN DEVELOP/MOVE EAST THROUGH MID EVENING. AS MODELS HAVE
PORTRAYED THE LAST FEW DAYS...BEST 0-6KM SHEAR WILL BE INITIALLY
DISPLACED FROM THE HIGHER CAPE...BUT CATCHES UP LATE TODAY INTO
THIS EVENING AS A MID LEVEL WAVE MOVES INTO THE DAKOTAS.
STILL...ENOUGH CAPE TO OVERCOME LACK OF SHEAR ESPECIALLY WHEN
COMBINED WITH THE APPROACHING MID LEVEL S/WV. AS THE SPC
MESOSCALE DISCUSSION INDICATED...DISCRETE CELLS INITIALLY WILL
TRANSITION TO MCS/BOWING SEGMENTS AS THE CONVECTION MOVES TO THE
EAST RESULTING IN DAMAGING WINDS BECOMING THE MAIN THREATS WHERE
AS HAIL WILL BE THE BIGGEST CONCERN AT FIRST. WILL ALSO NEED TO
MONITOR THE HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL WITH THE HIGH BOUNDARY LAYER
MOISTURE IN PLACE ALONG TO EAST OF THE SFC TROUGH.

ZONAL FLOW DEVELOPS LATER TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY. EMBEDDED ENERGY
WITHIN THE FLOW TOMORROW SHOULD TRIGGER A FEW SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. INSTABILITY NOT TOO GREAT SO THE OVERALL SEVERE
THREAT FOR FRIDAY WILL BE LOW. STILL WARM BUT MUCH MORE
COMFORTABLE CONDITIONS FOR FRIDAY WITH HIGHS MAINLY IN THE 80S
AND DEWPOINTS FALLING INTO THE 50S.

.LONG TERM...(FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY)

SATURDAY...WITH A FEW STRONGER SHORTWAVE ENERGY IMPULSES REACHING
WESTERN AND CENTRAL NORTH DAKOTA SATURDAY AFTERNOON.

CHANCES INCREASE AS A MID LEVEL WAVE DIGS ALONG THE WEST COAST AND
ADVANCES ACROSS THE ROCKIES WITH INCREASED RAIN CHANCES IN SOUTHWEST
