I've added a 15% Severe Risk for Saturday across northern plains. All modes look possible. *Multi-day severe weather across central and northern plains beyond Saturday is increasing. Ensemble guidance is consistent. Global guidance still differs.* #SevereWx

Here's my morning thoughts regarding primary severe hazard potential for Monday's outbreak. I think a 30-50 mile expansion east as convective details become clearer in due time. Trends to monitor. #kswx #mowx #kcwx #SevereWx
