 A tornado watch is currently in effect for eastern North Dakota, extreme northern South Dakota and extreme western Minnesota as a large, potent trough makes its way into the northern Plains this afternoon. Initial convective development has been in the form of discrete storms, with a dominant storm moving slowly east-northeast from near Jamestown generally toward Fargo. Later this evening the storms are expected to become more clustered, and eventually grow into a MCS which would likely impact western Minnesota into early tomorrow. By tomorrow afternoon, intense discrete or quasi-discrete storms are expected across southern MN, northeast IA and western Wisconsin; wind shear is expected to be very strong in a moderately unstable environment, especially over western Wisconsin, so strong tornadoes and very large hail are of particular concern tomorrow afternoon. The northern Plains chasers will likely be out in force later today and especially tomorrow, so be sure to follow their chase by accessing the Live page!
