   Areas affected...Southern Iowa and far northern Missouri

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 310...

   Valid 111133Z - 111300Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 310
   continues.

   SUMMARY...The threat for 60-80 mph winds will continue in southern
   Iowa. Brief tornadoes associated with the MCS will also be a
   concern. With discrete development ahead of the MCS possible, trends
   will need to be monitored for a potentially greater tornado threat.

   DISCUSSION...A compact MCS with a history of 60-80 mph winds and a
   couple of brief tornadoes continues east within southern Iowa. Ahead
   of this MCS, weak thunderstorm development has been noted in
   south-central Iowa. The primary concern this morning will continue
   to be severe/damaging winds as the downstream environment begins to
   further destabilize. A secondary concern that needs to be monitored
   is the potential for stronger discrete development ahead of the MCS
   near the surface boundary. The low-level jet core is expected to
   move into more of central/eastern Iowa this morning. This could lead
   to a greater tornado risk if discrete storms can form/mature.
