   Areas affected...Northern High Plains/Black Hills region

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 487...

   Valid 052156Z - 060000Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 487
   continues.

   SUMMARY...New severe thunderstorm watch will likely be warranted
   into western South Dakota in the next hour or so. Severe wind/hail
   can be expected with organized convection spreading into this
   region.

   DISCUSSION...Notable high-level diffluent flow is evident across the
   northern High Plains early this evening ahead of a progressive
   short-wave trough that is advancing across the northern Rockies. A
   considerable amount of deep convection is developing in response to
   this progressive feature, with a maturing MCS beginning to surge
   across southeast MT. This activity should begin to turn southeast
   over the next few hours, along/north of a surface front that is
   draped from the Nebraska Panhandle, along the west side of the Black
   Hills, into the northern Big Horn Mountains near Buffalo. Greatest
   buoyancy extends along the moist side of this wind shift which
   favors a severe MCS propagating toward the Black Hills later this
   evening. New severe thunderstorm watch will likely be issued to
   reflect this scenario.
