Areas affected...portions of far eastern NV into western UT
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20
Valid 172152Z - 172345Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent
SUMMARY...A cluster of high-based storms may produce a damaging wind
gust or two through this evening. A weather watch is not
anticipated.
DISCUSSION...As of 2145 UTC, regional radar and lightning data
showed a semi-organized cluster of high-based storms moving east out
of NV into western UT. Area surface observations show very hot
conditions (temperatures 100F+) across much of northern UT,
including the SLC Metro vicinity. Continued heating is supporting
modest buoyancy for high-based convection, with around 500 J/kg of
MUCAPE observed from SPC mesoanalysis. The dry low-level airmass is
supportive of very strong evaporative cooling potential with deep
inverted v profiles evident on area model soundings. As such, an
occasional downburst may produce strong to severe gusts through this
evening. Given the weak forcing and limited vertical shear
(generally less than 20 kt) storm organization will be modulated by
the strength of any cold pools, and is expected to be minimal. While
a severe gust or two is possible through this evening, the lack of
greater storm organization potential suggests a weather watch is
unlikely.
