    Mesoscale Discussion 2144

    Areas affected...parts of central and southern Arizona

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 131402Z - 131600Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Risk for marginal hail and gusty winds will continue with
    developing storms across parts of central and southern Arizona.=20 Limited/marginal nature of this risk should preclude the need for WW
    issuance.

    DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows scattered thunderstorm
    development ongoing across parts of the central and southern
    Arizona, ahead of a weak cyclonic disturbance aloft crossing the
    Lower Colorado Valley at this time, per WV imagery. Relatively cool
    air aloft/steep mid-level lapse rates are contributing to modest
    CAPE this morning, atop the still-stable boundary layer. With 30 kt
    mid-level westerlies (per PHX 12Z RAOB) the resulting 25 kt of cloud
    base to 500 mb shear will remain sufficient for rather vigorous
    updrafts locally. Hail around an inch in diameter will be possible
    with the strongest cells. Given the isolated and marginal nature of
    the risk, WW issuance is not anticipated.
