What's interesting is that almost all of the potentially affected offices said or implied that they are discounting the possibility of an MCS forming and moving SE, but the Lincoln, IL office seems convinced it will occur.

They were also convinced it would occur last night....

That and the fact it's the NAM definitely present favorable cases against any kind of complex occurring later tonight further SE. I'm starting to think I should believe the opposite of what the NAM is suggesting.

There is a severe warning just to your south, slow movers might be able to catch it

Couldn't have left until after 4...things were moving away by then. Tomorrow looks like another high instability day but deep layer shear might be even weaker...probably going to be pulsy type stuff around here for the most part but that can be good too if you're in the right spot at the right time.

Tigs up 5-0. Rarely beat the twins so a rain delay seems about right. At work. Any chasing or confirmed of anything on the ground?

From what I've seen/heard, mostly golf ball sized hail or smaller so far. A few funnel cloud reports but no reports of actual tornado-like damage yet in Minneapolis.

Note the cells now beginning to flourish under the spreading anvils as longwave radiational cooling begins over the anvil tops and the LLJ starts to kick in. If we continue to get development underneath this area, we may see the development of a decent cold pool and thus an MCS.

cool thing I noticed with the big supercell north of the twin cities...If you look at base vel and base ref on the 1:42z and 1:47z scans it looks like a small shower comes into the updraft region and actually enhances low-level rotation for a bit.

not too often you see mid-level lapse rates of 9C/km around here like we have now.

Concerning tomorrow's potential...

The 0z NAM has development from S. Nebraska down into S. Texas between 15-18z.

Agreed, thankfully it appears as though things will clear and then destabilize again a little later right along the dryline towards 0z, this will be the highest threat area.

I've seen several knowledgeable people question the NAM with this whole system.....Let me run through some RAOBS and double check how the NAM initialized.

Anyways that shouldn't ahve too much of an issue as there is little CAP through the day, and we get some bs crapvection.

http://beta.wxcaster...&STATIONID=KPTT

Decent sounding from Pratt KS at 0z, will probably head that way once I finish my calculus final.

Theres a nice SRH max in that area, getting to the triple point from here just east of ICT is a no go so the dryline play is the only thing I have.
