The Storm Prediction Center has issued a slight risk for severe weather over the extreme north-central U.S. near the Canadian Border today.  The tornado threat appears minimal since the best low-level wind shear is well east of the instability axis and the eventual storms.  However, I have not had a chance to look at things in detail since I am out of town...So I'll just post the SPC Day 1 tornado probabilities for now:

If anyone has had a chance to look at the models for today in detail, please post your thoughts!!

Hey, Reed. I dunno really if this has to do anything with the models you're talking about, but some are saying by 21Z, CAPE values will be around 5000-6500 in or near the area!!!
Also, dewpoints are in the 70's.
