AREAS AFFECTED...MN....WI...MI

CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 308...309...

VALID 282058Z - 282230Z

THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH
308...309...CONTINUES.

SUMMARY...SCATTERED STRONG TO OCCASIONALLY SEVERE STORMS CONTINUE
ACROSS WATCHES 308 AND 309. CONVECTION DOES APPEAR TO TAKING ON MORE
LINEAR CHARACTER AND EXPECT WIND AND HAIL POTENTIAL TO CONTINUE IN
PORTIONS OF BOTH WATCHES INTO THE EVENING.

DISCUSSION...CONVECTION ACROSS WI HAS STRUGGLED TO ATTAIN MORE VIGOR
THIS AFTERNOON BUT A FEW STORMS HAVE INTENSIFIED RECENTLY AND WIND
AND HAIL SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE A THREAT. FARTHER WEST...IN WATCH
309...RECENT TRENDS SUGGEST STORMS NEAR LAKE SUPERIOR AND ACROSS
CNTRL MN HAVE WEAKENED SOMEWHAT. HOWEVER...LARGE SCALE FORCING AND
SHEAR WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT PERSISTENCE. SOME OF THIS ACTIVITY
MAY SPREAD INTO THE WRN PORTIONS OF WATCH 308 DURING THE EVENING
WITH SOME CHANCE FOR HAIL AND WIND CONTINUING.
