    Mesoscale Discussion 0860

    Areas affected...Portions of the southern High Plains

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

    Valid 242004Z - 242130Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms are expected to develop southward along the
    higher terrain of Colorado and then move east/southeast over the
    High Plains into this evening. While the spatial extent of any
    severe threat is uncertain, a few storms may be accompanied by large
    hail and damaging winds. A watch could be needed by late afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...Considerable uncertainty remains due to the influence
    of processed low-level air behind a convective system now over
    Oklahoma. Still, convection appears to gradually be organizing over
    the higher terrain of southern Colorado, aided by a shortwave trough
    pivoting southeast over the region. Further heating to the east and
    slow moistening/cooling aloft in association with the trough may be
    adequate to drive isolated severe convection moving east/southeast
    over the High Plains into this evening. Deep-layer profiles favor
    supercells, and 8-9 C/km mid-level lapse rates suggest large hail
    would be the predominant threat. Although this threat is conditional
    (and perhaps limited in eastward extent due to prior
    convective/outflow influence), it could necessitate a Severe
    Thunderstorm Watch.
