    Areas affected...the central High Plains

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 302154Z - 302330Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated severe wind and hail threats should persist along
    and east of the lee trough this evening. While a watch is uncertain
    over most of the region amid isolated to widely spaced storms and a
    relatively lower-end severe threat, we are monitoring for a small
    severe thunderstorm watch if greater storm concentration becomes
    apparent.

    DISCUSSION...Isolated, widely spaced thunderstorms have developed
    from northeast WY to southeast CO within the western plume of 50s
    surface dew points across the central High Plains. Thus far, a
    measured wind gust of 65 mph occurred with a cell crossing I-25
    north of Cheyenne last hour, with a 1.5 inch hail report separately
    in Platte County, WY. Relatively greater buoyancy should be confined
    to the east-southeast CO portion amid low to mid 60s surface dew
    points across the Raton Mesa to Palmer Divide. Deep-layer shear was
    sampled at 30-35 kts per the Cheyenne and Denver VWP data, which
    will support transient supercell structures within the more robust
    updrafts. But relatively warm mid-level temperatures, especially
    across CO where -4 to -6 C at 500 mb is more prevalent, will
    probably limit hail sizes and parcel accelerations to some extent.
    Early afternoon guidance suggests convection within the CO portion
    may persist longer into the evening, aided by the larger buoyancy
    and modest increase in low-level flow. If in increase in clustering
    becomes more readily apparent, a small severe thunderstorm watch
    will be considered.
