    Mesoscale Discussion 1340

    Areas affected...Northern UT...Southeast ID...Southwest WY

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 221232Z - 221430Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated severe hail may accompany an elevated supercell
    or two that track east through midday.

    DISCUSSION...Elevated convection has slowly intensified since 1130Z
    near the NV/ID/UT border area, likely owing to a combination of
    strengthening warm advection and DCVA just ahead of a slowly
    ejecting shortwave trough near the ID/OR border. Recent HRRR runs
    and some 00Z HREF members simulate this activity well and indicate
    it will persist through at least midday. 12Z SLC/LKN soundings along
    with RAP forecast soundings suggest this convection is rooted
    between 700-600 mb atop a nocturnal boundary layer. Despite meager
    buoyancy (MUCAPE around 500 J/kg), very steep mid-level lapse rates
    of 8-9 C/km amid strong mid/upper-level shear (yielding effective
    values around 40 kt) will support a risk for an elevated supercell
    or two that could produce 1-1.5 inch hail.
