    Areas affected...Southeast CO into extreme southwest KS

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 487...

    Valid 132222Z - 132345Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 487 continues.

    SUMMARY...Supercells capable of very large hail and a couple of
    tornadoes will likely continue into the early evening.

    DISCUSSION...Intense supercells are ongoing late this afternoon
    across southeast CO to near the CO/KS border. These supercells are
    being supported by anomalous low-level moisture (with dewpoints near
    70 F), MLCAPE of 2000-3500 J/kg, and effective shear of 50+ kt, and
    maintenance of these cells is generally expected as they move
    southward into early evening. Additional development in the wake of
    the initial cells will also be possible, as low-level moisture
    advection continues into the higher terrain.=20

    Generally long and straight hodographs will continue to support the
    potential for very large hail. Low-level shear is not particularly
    strong, but may be sufficient to support the potential for a couple
    tornadoes, given the magnitude of low-level moisture and instability
    across the region. Isolated severe gusts will also be possible.
