    Areas affected...portions of central and north-central South Dakota

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 534...

    Valid 302347Z - 310145Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 534
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The potential for sporadic severe wind gusts and isolated
    large hail continues across portions of Severe Thunderstorm Watch
    534.

    DISCUSSION...Ongoing convection across western South Dakota has
    formed into a loosely organized cluster over the past 1-2 hours,
    with sporadic reports of severe wind gusts and an isolated report of
    1" hail noted with this activity. A narrow corridor of greater
    MLCAPE collocated with warmer surface temperatures and a local
    minimum in cloud cover exists downstream of this activity, with a
    convective outflow/differential heating boundary located farther to
    the east. This corridor of greater buoyancy will continue to support
    a risk for sporadic severe wind gusts and an instance or two of
    large hail over the next couple of hours as ongoing convection
    progresses east/southeastward. The overall severe risk should then
    gradually subside into the overnight hours as convection encounters
    a less unstable air mass.
