Sig #2 Using ProbSevere

Another thunderstorm rapidly intensified with ProbSevere increasing from 2% to 90% in 16 minutes:

Further integration showed ~60 dBZ at -20C (from MRMS). Therefore, this storm was probably close to severe criteria. I decided to issue a significant weather advisory (polygon on all images) for strong winds of 50 to 55 mph and nickel size hail with the assistance of ProbSevere.
