    Areas affected...Eastern North Dakota and northwestern Minnesota

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 494...

    Valid 072157Z - 072330Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 494
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The threat for a tornado or two and occasional large
    hail/wind damage will persist.

    DISCUSSION...A few supercells are ongoing across east central and
    northeast ND. The more favorable zone for a tornado or two will
    remain along the northwest-southeast oriented baroclinic zone across
    extreme northeast ND, where both vertical shear/buoyancy and
    vertical vorticity are maximized along and to the immediate cool
    side of the front. Farther south, a couple of storms are ongoing
    immediately ahead of the surface wind shift/trough. Moderate
    buoyancy is present through this zone where surface temperatures
    have warmed into the mid-upper 70s with mid 60s dewpoints, but
    relatively straight hodographs support some potential for large
    hail. Overall, storms are expected to remain semi-discrete and the
    severe threat should peak between now and 00z in the zone of modest
    forcing for ascent with a midlevel shortwave trough now moving over
    northeast ND.
