Areas affected...portions of eastern Utah into western Colorado

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

Valid 222032Z - 222300Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...The threat for isolated severe wind and hail is increasing
across portions of eastern UT into western CO. A WW issuance is not
currently expected.

DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms are increasing in number and intensity
across eastern UT/western CO along the entrance region of a 300 mb
jet streak, where a well-mixed boundary layer is now in place.
Latest MRMS-MESH radar data suggests some of the stronger storms may
already be producing at least marginally severe (i.e. 1 inch
diameter) hail. Surface temperatures approaching the upper 80s F
beneath 9 C/km tropospheric lapse rates is contributing to 500-1000
J/kg MLCAPE. RAP forecast soundings depict hodographs with modest
low-level curvature but considerable mid-level elongation, which
will promote continued multicell/supercell development through the
afternoon. The strongest storms will be accompanied by some severe
wind/hail threat. However, the severe threat should remain isolated,
and a WW issuance is not currently anticipated.
