   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 427
   continues.

   SUMMARY...A corridor of strong to severe gusts around 50-65 mph
   remains possible this morning across far southeast Minnesota into
   far northeast Iowa and west-central Wisconsin.

   DISCUSSION...A cluster of storms near a surface boundary across
   southeast MN will continue to track east around 40 mph. This
   activity has produced gusts up to 67 mph recently. The downstream
   environment remains very moist and unstable, and a southwesterly
   low-level jet around 25-30 kt should further aid in maintenance for
   strong to severe convection the next couple of hours as storms
   approach the MS River.
