Areas affected...Northeast ND into northwest MN

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

Valid 032210Z - 040015Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...Strong to locally severe storms may increase into the
evening.

DISCUSSION...Storms are gradually increasing in coverage and
intensity late this afternoon across eastern ND, along east of a
surface trough. A mid/upper-level shortwave trough/low moving across
the Canadian Prairies will help to sustain this convection into the
evening, with storms expected to spread across parts of northeast ND
into northwest MN. While both low-level and deep-layer shear will
tend to be stronger across the area covered by WW 271, moderate
buoyancy (MLCAPE of 1000-1500 J/kg) and effective shear of 25-35 kt
will support occasional storm organization, including potential for
hail, localized strong/damaging gusts, and possibly a brief tornado.

While the magnitude and coverage of the severe threat across
northeast ND/northwest MN is expected to be less than areas farther
south, and additional watch issuance is considered unlikely, trends
will be monitored for an uptick in storm coverage/intensity into the
early evening.
