Areas affected...Parts of central and eastern Wyoming
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20
Valid 062048Z - 062245Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent
SUMMARY...The risk of isolated large hail and locally severe gusts
will increase through the afternoon. Current thinking is that the
severe threat could remain too isolated for a watch, though trends
will be monitored.
DISCUSSION...Along and west of the Laramie Mountains in southeast
WY, visible satellite imagery shows an expanding/deepening cumulus
field amid veered surface winds -- indicative of deep boundary-layer mixing/destabilization. Within the deeply mixed airmass, isolated
convective development is underway over Natrona County, and 40-50 kt
of 0-6 km bulk shear (per the RIW VWP) is already supporting
supercellular characteristics with this activity.=20
As the steep low-level lapse rates associated with the diurnally
deepening boundary layer continue to impinge on recycled moisture
(upper 50s/lower 60s dewpoints) and east-southeasterly upslope flow
over eastern WY, convective intensity/coverage should gradually
increase through the afternoon. Long/generally straight hodographs
and weak large-scale ascent should initially support
discrete/semi-discrete splitting supercells with a risk of large
hail and severe gusts given a deep sub-cloud layer and modest
midlevel lapse rates. With time, continued cell splits/mergers and a
modest increase in large-scale ascent ahead of a weak midlevel wave
could favor increasing convective coverage. Currently, it is unclear
if the severe risk will warrant a watch, though convective trends
will be monitored.
