    Mesoscale Discussion 1568
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0207 PM CDT Sat Jul 05 2025

    Areas affected...Portions of eastern Iowa and adjacent parts of
    Wisconsin and northern Illinois

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 051907Z - 052130Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms are expected to increase in coverage and
    intensity through the afternoon hours across the region. An
    isolated damaging wind gust may be possible with the strongest and
    most organized storms, but a severe thunderstorm watch is unlikely.

    DISCUSSION...A prefrontal north-northeast to
    south-southwest-oriented band of storms across Iowa and Wisconsin
    ahead of a midlevel impulse has begun strengthening and deepening
    this afternoon. Relatively clear skies ahead of these storms has
    resulted in surface heating and modest destabilization (~1000 J/kg
    of MLCAPE per recent mesoanalysis). Recent VWPs from ARX indicate
    around 30 knots of deep-layer shear, supporting the possibility of
    at least some storm organization. The poor midlevel lapse rates,
    however, will likely limit the overall severe threat. With over 30
    knots of flow around 1-km AGL and relatively steep low-level lapse
    rates, isolated damaging wind gusts may be possible with the
    strongest storms.
