Areas affected...Central into northeast NV...northwest UT...and far
southeast ID

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

Valid 031832Z - 032100Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

SUMMARY...Severe-storm risk will increase from west to east this
afternoon, with severe gusts and hail possible. A watch is possible
in the next couple of hours.

DISCUSSION...Latest regional radar data shows a swath of convection
with several embedded/transient deeper cores spreading northward
across the northern half of NV this afternoon. This activity is
generally focused near a north/south-oriented surface
trough/stationary front and within an area of maximized
DCVA/midlevel ascent (evident in water vapor imagery) preceding a
substantial midlevel trough over northern CA/OR.

As the midlevel trough and related height falls gradually spread
eastward across eastern NV and eventually UT through the afternoon
and evening, scattered to numerous thunderstorms will spread/expand east-northeastward across the region. Filtered heating and related destabilization of a very moist air mass across the northern half of
NV, coupled with a long/straight hodograph (40-50 kt of effective
shear), will support a mix of organized clusters/line segments and
supercell structures. Severe gusts are the primary concern with this
activity, though instances of severe hail are also possible --
especially with any sustained supercell structures. With time,
thunderstorms should increase in both intensity and coverage as they spread/develop east-northeastward into northwest UT this
afternoon/evening -- in concert with the ejecting midlevel trough.
Here, less cloud coverage and stronger diurnal heating may
eventually support a relatively higher severe-wind threat, as storms
intercept an increasingly mixed boundary layer amid favorable
deep-layer shear.=20

A watch is possible for parts of the area in the next couple of
hours.
