Keep an eye on the sky this afternoon into tonight.

DERECHO IS LIKELY MONDAY ACROSS NORTHERN PLAINS😲‼

From the NWS Storm Prediction Center: "Some CAM guidance differs slightly on the position of the derecho-producing MCS, including the possibility of a secondary bow echo developing closer to the SD/NE border. The track of the parent bow echo will be largely dependent on where the baroclinic boundary from an MCS (ongoing along the MN/IA border) sets up with daytime airmass modification. Therefore, some adjustments in the position of probabilities may be needed in future outlooks. Regardless of the aforementioned details, a higher-end severe wind event should unfold across the northern Plains, especially over central into eastern SD."
