.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 158 PM CDT Fri Jun 27 2025

A very active weekend lies ahead with multiple rounds of strong
to severe thunderstorms and locally heavy rainfall expected.
Severe thunderstorms will develop across the Dakotas,
eventually merging into a thunderstorms complex overnight. This
complex of thunderstorms will move into western Minnesota during
the overnight hours (2-4 AM) and move gradually southeastwards
through the morning, reaching the Twin Cities/I-35 corridor by
sunrise (5-7 AM) & eventually dissipating over southeast
Minnesota/western Wisconsin by mid-morning. Damaging wind will
be the main severe threat with this thunderstorm complex, and
the threat will be highest across western Minnesota where
500-1000 J/kg of surface- based CAPE will be present overnight.
Instability is weaker farther east, meaning the complex should
begin to weaken through the morning across eastern Minnesota &
western Minnesota, but a few sporadic damaging wind gusts still
can`t be ruled out. Heavy downpours are likely with quick
rainfall amounts of around an inch, but the flooding threat
looks minimal due to the progressive motion of the thunderstorm
complex.

After the thunderstorm complex dissipates during the morning, a
warm front will move northwards through through the area &
advect in much higher dew points out of Iowa. Afternoon
temperatures will depend on how quickly clouds clear out from
the morning thunderstorms, but most locations should warm well
into the 80s & into the 90s across southern & far-western
Minnesota. Dew points near the mid 70s will allow for heat
indices of 95-100 degrees, possibly higher across southern
Minnesota if daytime heating is maximized there. This will allow
for an very unstable environment to build over Minnesota &
Wisconsin as Surface-bnased CAPE values are forecast to reach
4000 J/kg across southern Minnesota and far-western Wisconsin.
However, temperatures aloft will also be warmer over this
environment, with 700 mb temperatures of 10-12 C indicating
strong (but not not unbreakable) capping will likely be in place
into the evening.

The main area of interest for thunderstorm initiation Saturday
afternoon is north of this capping, across central Minnesota
where the environment will be less explosive ("only" 2000-2500
J/kg SBCAPE) but much more conducive for storm development with
cooler temperatures aloft. Furthermore, one or more boundaries
will likely be left over from the morning convection, likely
acting as an initiation point wherever they set up across
central Minnesota by late afternoon. Dep shear values will be
seasonally strong for late June with 30-40 kts of deep shear
overlaying the explosive environment, meaning thunderstorms
will rapidly intensify after they initiate & have the potential
to become supercellular quickly. All modes of severe
thunderstorms would be possible with these initial supercells,
with damaging wind gusts likely the main hazard followed by the
potential for a few tornadoes & large hail. However, the lack
of capping over central Minnesota also means that thunderstorms
will likely become widespread quickly after initiating,
resulting i these initial supercells merging into one or
multiple clusters of thunderstorms. Once these clusters develop,
the severe threat becomes predominately damaging wind along
with an increasing threat for torrential rain & localized
flooding. Confidence is still low in the details for when and
where exactly this evening round of severe weather will occur,
as we`ll need to determine where the mesoscale boundaries set
up during the afternoon. Somewhere over central Minnesota
between 4-6 PM looks to be the general consensus for the
initial supercell threat, with these storms quickly merging
into clusters of storms and moving eastwards/southeastwards by
6-8 PM, with the damaging wind threat continuing into western
Wisconsin through 10 PM-midnight. Hard to say where exactly
these clusters will move once they develop, as storm-scale
propagation will take over & they will track along any existing
boundaries, but think the overall severe threat is highest
north of a line roughly from Marshall- Northfield-Eau Claire.
Additional scattered thunderstorms look likely to develop
during the overnight hours as the low- level jet interacts with
remnant boundaries, but these look to mainly be rain-makers
with an overall low threat for any severe weather. The possible
exception could be across far-southern Minnesota, where a few
high-resolutation models depict a thunderstorm complex
developing across eastern South Dakota & impacting at least
portions of southwestern Minnesota.

Temperatures return back to more seasonable values Sunday as a
cold front moves in behind the storms Saturday night. Another
round of thunderstorms will likely develop along the front
during the afternoon, but models differ on the timing &
location of the front across central Minnesota. Any threat for
strong to severe thunderstorms would be limited to portions of
western Wisconsin, but the overall the threat looks to be
mainly east of our area. Northwest flow then develops aloft &
continues through midweek, keeping us generally dry & near-
normal to slightly below-normal for temperatures. The next round
of active weather comes Thursday into the weekend as the flow
becomes stronger aloft & a few disturbances develop in the
northwest flow aloft.

.AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z SUNDAY/...
Issued at 1235 AM CDT Sat Jun 28 2025

Confidence has generally decreased over the past 6 hours with
TSRA chances. The most widespread convection is over the
southeast corner of NoDak, approaching western Minnesota over
the next 1-2 hours. Hi-res models had been consistently taking
this MCS down the the I-94 corridor, riding the gradient of
building instability. Two areas of convection over SoDak were
not captured as well, and may play a role in keeping the NoDak
storms on an eastward trajectory rather SE-ward. Expect changes
to the forecast as the storms continue to evolve this morning.
The PROB30s generally account for the two possible scenarios of
the either the NoDak storms traveling SE towards the Twin
Cities metro and weakening, or the SoDak storms traveling
through south-central MN and no storms across the rest of
central Minnesota.

With the uncertainty of storm evolution this morning, the exact
extent and persistence of storms later today remains lower
confidence as well. The most likely storm initiation is around
22-00z, and a somewhat messy, multicellular storm mode is
favored. Winds shift more southerly throughout the day, and
become gusty during afternoon especially in southern Minnesota.

KMSP...Adjusted the TEMPO from 11-14z back to a PROB30 due to
the aforementioned decrease in confidence. The useful aspect of
this setup is that storms are already ongoing, so we`ll be able
to see them coming should they turn southeast and continue
towards KMSP later this morning. If you don`t see them turn
over the next few hours, the probability for storms will
drastically decrease. Expect frequent updates to the forecast.

/OUTLOOK FOR KMSP/
SUN...MVFR/RA likely, chc TSRA/IFR. Wind SW 5-10 kts.
MON...VFR. Wind NW 10-15 kts.
TUE...VFR. Wind NW 10-15 kts.
