00:00We are tracking and organizing windbag, our massive straight-line wind event here across northern North Dakota,
00:06and we are looking for these little inflow notches right along the shelf cloud boundary,
00:11and even little mesocyclones here.
00:13You can see the spin happening right on the front side there.
00:16When this line hits that deeper moisture, when those dew points get up into the upper 60s,
00:21features like this will have the potential of becoming QLCS tornadoes, which can be damaging as well.
00:27You just got to look for these little inflow notches that carve into the gust front.
00:32This is a quasi-linear convective system that's organizing possible derecho eventually,
00:37depending on how organized and long-lived this event can get.
00:40But we could easily see winds, straight-line winds in excess of 80 miles an hour with this squall line,
00:46and we might even have embedded tornadoes as well.
00:49If these inflow notches can carve in deep behind the gust front, that's when we could get some QLCS tornadoes.
00:55But that happens when you have these updrafts sharing a common gust front,
00:59and this is going to steamroll east, and there is plenty of ambient shear and moisture out ahead of this
01:04line.
