    Areas affected...West-central into central Wisconsin

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 103...

    Valid 140057Z - 140230Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 103 continues.

    SUMMARY...A threat for tornadoes will continue into the evening as
    low-level shear increases. Furthermore, upscale growth of ongoing
    supercells will also lead to an increase threat for severe winds.

    DISCUSSION...Two supercells are ongoing west and northeast of Black
    River Falls. The high-precipitation character of these storms has
    become more apparent over the last couple of hours. The storm west
    of BRF shows a strong, but broad mesocyclone along with a strong
    rear flank downdraft signal on radar. With continued warm advection
    and upscale growth, an increasing threat for severe winds may
    develop as they progress east-southeast. To the east, cooler air is
    noted in surface observations which would suggest the strongest
    activity may turn slightly southward into greater buoyancy. The
    tornado threat will continue, however, as large low-level hodographs
    are evident on KARX and KMKX. Large hail could occur on an isolated
    basis, but storm mode will likely become less favorable with time.
