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

    Valid 231911Z - 232115Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...Storms with a risk of large hail and severe gusts are
    possible this afternoon across portions of eastern Wyoming,
    southeastern Montana, western South Dakota, and northwestern
    Nebraska. A watch may be needed to cover this threat.

    DISCUSSION...Storms are developing in a post-frontal upslope flow
    regime in northern and eastern Wyoming. These storms are situated on
    the southern periphery of a modest mid-level jet. This flow should
    provide sufficient deep-layer shear for a supercell storm mode, and
    given the relatively straight hodographs and lower freezing levels,
    some severe hail is possible initially with these storms. The
    deep-layer shear decreases markedly with southward extent, so this
    may put a limit on the southern extent of the hail risk.

    Given relatively high boundary layer humidity, cold pools may be
    weaker, and therefore upscale growth may be slow to occur. However,
    some clustering of storms is expected with time. This would
    transition the primary threat to severe gusts given the relatively
    steep low-level lapse rates and modest flow aloft on the regional
    RAP short-term forecast profiles.
