    Areas affected...northeast Nebraska and northwest Iowa

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 118...

    Valid 161903Z - 162030Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 118 continues.

    SUMMARY...The hail and tornado threat persists in tornado watch 118.

    DISCUSSION...Convection has been confined mostly near the surface
    low this morning and early afternoon beneath cool air aloft. Storms
    which have formed in the vicinity of this boundary have had several
    reports of tornadoes from what appears to be both mini-supercell and non-supercell processes. The Pacific Front seems to have arrived
    which should lead to an acceleration east this afternoon. A few
    tornadoes may occur as the storms continue east given the veered
    flow near the surface low.=20

    Across northwest Iowa, deepening cumulus has developed along the
    dryline with the first thunderstorm in Carroll County. Low-level
    flow has become mostly unidirectional on the KDMX VWP where winds
    are more southerly. However, ahead of this storm, east-southeasterly
    surface winds are present which should increase low-level SRH.
    Therefore, if this storm continues to mature, it should pose a
    threat for both large hail and a tornado or two.
