Wyoming...and far western Nebraska
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely=20
Valid 262013Z - 262115Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent
SUMMARY...A few thunderstorms with large hail and severe gusts are
possible this afternoon across portions of northeastern Colorado,
southeastern Wyoming, and far western Nebraska. A watch may be
needed to cover this threat.
DISCUSSION...A large upper trough is in place across the
northwestern CONUS with a subtle jet pushing eastward over the
central Rockies this afternoon. Storms are preferentially developing
along a couple convergence boundaries across portions of the High
Plains. The flow enhancement from the jet results in lengthened
hodographs, which should result in enough shear for at least a few
supercells.
With any supercells that do form, a few instances of large hail are
possible due to the straight hodographs and relatively low freezing
levels. Storms may cluster as the afternoon progresses, which may
result in a threat for severe gusts due to the dry boundary layer
and modest low- and mid-level flow. One limiting factor for wind is
some residual inhibition across parts of the High Plains, though
this is expected to erode with continued strong heating. A watch
will likely be needed to cover this threat.
