    Areas affected...Portions of northeastern NV...far northern
    UT...eastern ID...and western WY

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 139...

    Valid 312235Z - 010000Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 139
    continues.

    SUMMARY...An isolated large hail and strong to damaging wind threat
    should continue across mainly eastern portions of WW 139 and
    vicinity.

    DISCUSSION...22Z surface analysis shows a cold front extending from
    eastern ID into northern NV. Modest surface heating amidst cloud
    breaks has allowed temperatures to warm into the mid 60s to mid 70s
    across lower elevations. Low-level moisture remains quite limited
    across this region, which is tempering instability even with
    modestly steep mid-level lapse rates. Latest RAP mesoanalysis
    estimates MLCAPE is no greater than 1000 J/kg across southeastern
    ID. But, strong mid-level winds and a veering profile with height
    are resulting in 40-55 kt of effective bulk shear. Isolated
    supercells have been noted over the past couple of hours, mainly
    across southeastern ID where relatively greater low-level moisture
    is present. Large hail and damaging winds will remain the primary
    threats through the early evening hours. As the cold front continues
    slowly eastward and diurnal cooling begins later this evening, the
    overall severe threat should diminish from west to east across the
    Severe Thunderstorm Watch.
