    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 454...

    Valid 250440Z - 250645Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 454
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Increasing thunderstorm development seems likely to
    gradually evolve into an intensifying and much better organized
    southeastward moving cluster of storms across northwestern into
    central Wisconsin through 2-4 AM CDT. This probably will be
    accompanied by increasing risk for damaging wind gusts. Trends are
    being monitored for the possibility of an additional watch or two
    downstream.

    DISCUSSION...In advance of a surface low now near Minneapolis, it
    appears that the south-southwesterly low-level jet has strengthened
    to 50+ kt across southeastern Minnesota into northwestern Wisconsin.
    Intensifying low-level warm advection and lift have contributed to
    steadily increasing convection in a cluster centered roughly 60
    miles north to northeast of Eau Claire. Aided by continuing
    elevated updraft inflow of seasonably high moisture content, and
    further erosion of mid-level inhibition, substantive further upscale
    growth of convection appears probable during the next few hours.=20
    With most unstable CAPE as high as 4000+ J/kg, in the presence of
    moderate to strong deep-layer shear, activity still seems likely to
    eventually become much better organized, including the evolution of
    a notable mesoscale convective vortex.

    With the stronger, unstable inflow being maintained from the south
    to southwest, the evolving cluster seems likely to take on more of a southeastward propagation as it becomes better organized across
    central Wisconsin through 07-09Z. And strengthening rear inflow to
    the west and south of the developing cyclonic circulation may
    gradually be accompanied by increasing risk for damaging surface
    gusts.
