    Areas affected...Portions of northern ME

    Concerning...Heavy snow=20

    Valid 161636Z - 162200Z

    SUMMARY...Heavy snow, with rates around 1 inch per hour, should
    occur through the afternoon across parts of northern Maine.

    DISCUSSION...A shortwave trough over northern NY and southern
    Ontario/Quebec will progress northeastward today. Strong large-scale
    ascent associated with this feature will overspread northern New
    England through the afternoon. A band of precipitation associated
    with pronounced frontogenesis in the 700-500 mb layer currently
    exists over southern Quebec into northern ME. Based on the 12Z
    sounding from CAR and latest RAP forecast soundings, expectations
    are for the bulk of this precipitation to fall as snow across
    northern ME over the next several hours. Strong ascent through the
    saturated dendritic growth zone should support a band of heavy snow,
    with rates around 1 inch per hour, mainly across northern ME through
    this afternoon. Locally higher rates may occur within the most
    intense portions of the heavy snow band. The stronger forcing aloft
    will eventually shift into Canada by this evening, with the heavy
    snow also developing northward and away from northern ME. A mix of
    freezing rain and sleet may occur on the southern fringe of the
    precipitation band, where low-level warm advection will support some
    melting of frozen hydrometeors.

    Areas affected...portions of southern MN...northern IA and western
    WI

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 627...628...

    Valid 112342Z - 120045Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 627, 628
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Ongoing severe storms will continue to pose a risk for
    hail and damaging gusts this evening. A downstream watch is likely
    needed east of WW627.

    DISCUSSION...As of 2335 UTC, several severe storms, including a few
    supercells, were ongoing across portions of southern MN and
    west-central WI. The environment ahead of these storms remains
    moderately unstable and strongly sheared with area VADs showing
    45-50 kt of effective shear. This should favor continued maintenance
    of strong updrafts with a mixed mode of supercells and line
    segments. Given recent reports of significant hail and several
    measured severe gusts, storms will remain capable of large to very
    large hail and damaging gusts. Additional upscale growth into a more
    linear arrangement will remain possible this evening as storms track
    into northern IA and western/southwestern WI. The primary risk may
    shift more towards damaging gusts with time. With storms nearing the
    eastern edge of WW627 within the next hour, a new watch will likely
    be needed into WI.
