National Weather Force has issued a Severe Thunderstorm Watch effective for parts of Western Nebraska, effective this evening till midnight tonight.
An upper-level system out of the west will move into the region today. Upper lift will be present, which is normal for this time of year in these areas. Dewpoints are up and the temperature is rising. Backing southeast winds will accompany the surface low to bring a tornado probability, mainly along the watch area. Storms will move predominately to the east with time.
National Weather Force Tornado Risk Analysis Model (TRAM) is pegging a weak tornado dynamic risk today in the focus areas spoken of, which means that isolated tornadoes cannot be ruled out within the lone supercell clusters, which should last even into the night with a valid tornado threat so have your radios handy as nighttime tornadoes cannot be seen and are considered the most dangerous.
Large hail and damaging winds will also accompany the watch area.
