    Areas affected...eastern Iowa...southeast Minnesota...southwest

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 565...

    Valid 160111Z - 160315Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 565 continues.

    SUMMARY...The threat for damaging winds and brief tornadoes
    continues from Iowa into Wisconsin.

    DISCUSSION...A long-lived line of storms with a history of
    significant wind damage continues to rapidly move eastward at over
    70 mph along a cold front. Meanwhile, a warm front is gradually
    lifting north over far southeast MN and into parts of southwest WI.
    Forecast soundings from the warm frontal area indicate that a
    near-60 F surface dewpoint yields 500-750 J/kg MLCAPE. This,
    combined with effective SRH over 500 m2/s2 suggests that storms will
    persist across the MN/WI/IA portion of the MS River Valley. Damaging
    wind gusts remain likely given the speed of this system as well as
    wind magnitude just off the surface, and low-level shear still
    supports a QLCS tornado risk.

    Farther south across IL and into MO, instability is weaker with more
    CIN noted on objective analysis. However, the existing line of
    storms will continue to post a damaging wind risk toward the MS
    Valley here as well, although the greatest risk remains farther
    north where the line is oriented perpendicular to the deep-layer
    shear vector.
