This should of been a tornado watch from the outset... now getting tornado warned storms west of Minneapolis, Minnesota...

 

At face value, the profiles out there aren't the greatest for a ton of tornado development with the somewhat veered flow and the unimpressive low-level CAPE values. 

 

The main thing that's helping the tornado threat is the fact that the line is taking longer than expected to organize and congeal.

Ah. Sometimes, like tonight, the weather can all throw us a curveball or two. :)

Yeah, the 0Z takes awhile to get the MCS here but if it shows up about 06Z it will be in an explosive environment. This thing could with some of the soundings this morning (if they verify) end up a potential derecho

Yeah lots of possibilities. The NAM shows a MCS moving through in the morning, with rapid destabilization behind it. I've seen a few mets saying there could be possibly 2 MCSs/derecho type events Wednesday. One in the late morning in IL, moving E, and then supercells congealing into some type of MCS again in the evening. Definitely something to watch.

Not to burst your bubble Hillsdale but being modeled near the northern edge at this distance is often not a great spot to be. The overall potential is still looking pretty nice on the latest runs.

I will say this though, the main potential area has been nosing north run to run. Tomorrow will be a very crucial day, if the front doesn't go very far south, the potential area may shift north some. Tomorrow really doesn't look spectacular so the push by the front may not be too far south.

SEVERE STORMS CAPABLE OF WIDESPREAD DAMAGING WIND...A FEW TORNADOES   AND LARGE HAIL ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS A LARGE AREA FROM THE UPPER   MISSISSIPPI VALLEY SOUTHEASTWARD INTO THE OHIO VALLEY DURING THE DAY   AND OVERNIGHT ON WEDNESDAY.   ...SYNOPSIS...   A BROAD BELT OF STRONG NWLY FLOW ALOFT WILL EXIST ACROSS THE NRN   STATES...WITH MAIN LONG-WAVE TROUGH OVER THE NERN STATES AND UPPER   HIGH CENTERED OVER THE SRN PLAINS. WITHIN THIS NWLY FLOW REGIME WILL   BE MULTIPLE DISTURBANCES WHICH ARE LIKELY TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH   CLUSTERS OF SEVERE STORMS FROM THE UPPER MS VALLEY SEWD TOWARD THE   OH VALLEY. A SFC LOW WILL MOVE FROM NEBRASKA WED MORNING INTO IA BY   00Z...WITH A WARM FRONT LIFTING NWD ACROSS THE UPPER MS VALLEY AND   TOWARD SRN LAKE MICHIGAN.

The overall potential is still looking pretty nice on the latest runs.

 

I'm having DVN withdrawal

 

It's a really nice MCS signal this far in advance. GFS RH and 200 mb divergence progs are definitely on board with the two MCS look (stronger round 2 than the early stuff in IA Wednesday morning). 

 

I'm really impressed with the modeled theta-e lapse rates overnight Wednesday. Typically you see a nice diurnal trend with those (steeper during the day, less so at night). GFS is most robust, but all models have it, where somewhere in the IL/IN/OH corridor those lapse rates stay closer to 5-7 C/km overnight (greater than 4 is more favorable for severe weather).

I 80 south is going to get rolled wednesday

going to be hard watching this one go down while we're stuck in the cold stratiform rains on the northside

While this is probably right, I do have to agree With Stebo's point that if tomorrow's threat isn't too high(which it doesnt look to be), the warm front should be able to retreat further north Wednesday. Just an optimistic idea :)
