MD 0751 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL…WATCH UNLIKELY FOR NORTHEAST COLORADO…SOUTHEAST WYOMING…NEBRASKA PANHANDLE
Mesoscale Discussion 0751 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0828 PM CDT Tue May 09 2023 Areas affected...Northeast Colorado...Southeast Wyoming...Nebraska Panhandle Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely Valid 100128Z - 100330Z Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent SUMMARY...Isolated thunderstorms may generate hail this evening. Severe thunderstorm watch is not currently anticipated. DISCUSSION...Isolated thunderstorms have recently matured across the central High Plains from just east of Denver to the WY/NE border. This activity should persist within upslope flow regime for the next few hours as instability has yet to be overturned across northeast CO into southeast WY. Forecast soundings exhibit steep lapse rates but this activity should only drift slowly east with an attendant threat for hail. Most hail cores have generally been around one inch or less and so for this reason a watch is not currently anticipated. ..Darrow/Hart.. 05/10/2023 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
