Scattered severe storms are likely across the central Plains on Monday. Damaging wind and hail are the main threats. Isolated strong to potentially severe storms are also possible from parts of New York into Maine. ...Central High Plains into the northern Plains... A shortwave trough will move east/southeast across the northern Plains and into the mid MO to upper MS Valley on Monday, with moderate northwest winds aloft. Midlevel temperatures will also be relatively cool, with -10 C at 500 mb as far south as KS. At the surface, a trough will develop from central SD into western NE and northeast CO, while southerly winds aid air mass recovery across the region. Storms will likely develop both along a cold front over the Dakotas, and extending southward as activity develops off the Front Range. Forecast soundings indicate over 2000 J/kg is likely over much of the warm sector, which will support strong to severe storms. A few supercells will be possible initially with large hail and even a brief tornado, before storms congeal into an MCS during the evening with damaging winds likely. ...Parts of the Lower Great Lakes and Northeast... As a low-amplitude wave moves across Ontario and Quebec, height tendencies will remain rather neutral over the Northeast during the day. A surface trough and front will stretch roughly along the Canadian border, with upper 60s F dewpoints common. Daytime heating will lead to around 1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE, and storms are likely to form within this moist and uncapped air mass from western NY into northern New England. Modest 30 kt midlevel westerlies and favorable time of day with a deepening mixed boundary layer may support locally strong gusts capable of damage. ..Jewell.. 07/06/2025 $$
