   Areas affected...Parts of far eastern Minnesota and northwestern
   Wisconsin

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 423...

   Valid 170019Z - 170145Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 423 continues.

   SUMMARY...Strong to severe storms may continue spreading eastward
   across parts of northwestern Wisconsin. Convective trends are being
   monitored for a possible extension of Tornado Watch 423.

   DISCUSSION...Along the cold front, a broken band of thunderstorms is
   tracking eastward at around 35-40 kt, with occasional bowing
   structures evident. The primary concern with this activity continues
   to be damaging wind gusts, though an embedded tornado cannot be
   ruled out, given a 30-kt low-level jet and related enhanced
   low-level shear. As these storms continue eastward toward the
   eastern edge of Tornado Watch 423, they will encounter weaker
   instability and gradually increasing nocturnal boundary-layer
   stability. However, the focused and strengthening low-level jet may
   compensate for this, and support a continued severe risk across
   parts of northwestern WI. Convective trends are being monitored for
   a possible eastward extension of Tornado Watch 423.
