Areas affected...Central and Eastern Montana
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20
Valid 302142Z - 302315Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent
SUMMARY...A severe thunderstorm watch is possible this
afternoon/evening across eastern Montana.
DISCUSSION...Elevated thunderstorms are ongoing this afternoon
across northeast Montana. 12Z CAM guidance was split whether this
elevated convection would be strong/severe, however, current radar
trends suggest a supercell or two, similar to the 12Z WRF-ARW/NSSL
may be the most likely evolution. If this activity continues to
intensify, it could eventually become surface based as heating and
low-level moisture advection destabilizes the airmass ahead of it.
Similarly, thunderstorms across southeast Montana are also likely
somewhat elevated, but are moving into an airmass with increasing
surface based instability and reducing inhibition. If one or both of
these regions appear to "turn the corner", a watch may be needed in
the next 1 to 2 hours.=20
Regardless of this early activity across eastern Montana, a severe
thunderstorm watch is more likely later this evening for supercells
which are expected to form in central Montana and move east. At this
time, inhibition appears to be limiting more robust convective
development, but with a few more hours of heating and upslope flow,
expect an uncapped airmass and a few mature supercells to develop
and move off of the higher terrain. A strengthening southeasterly
low-level jet later this evening and increasing moisture advection
should maintain this threat into the early morning hours on Monday.
