    Areas affected...Portions of Northern Colorado into Southeast
    Wyoming

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

    Valid 262053Z - 262300Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms have begun developing west of Cheyenne, WY,
    with additional development possible near the Denver metro where
    visible satellite shows additional cumulus development. These
    thunderstorms will be capable of damaging winds and hail, but
    overall uncertainty in storm organization, coverage, and timing
    means convective trends will continue to be monitored for weather
    watch issuance.

    DISCUSSION...Thunderstorm development has increased over Cheyenne
    and is anticipated to continue eastward into relatively meager
    buoyancy of 500-1000 J/kg MLCAPE, and 40-45 kts of deep layer shear.
    Further south, developing cumulus was observed west of Denver over
    the Rockies, with convective coverage expected to increase this
    evening ahead of a subtle shortwave trough moving around the north
    side of the upper level high.=20

    RAP proximity soundings and SPC mesoanalysis show the environment is characterized by MLLCL heights > 2500m due to a relatively hot, dry
    boundary layer, indicating the primary threat will be for damaging straight-line winds from thunderstorm outflow. Given the strength of
    the vertical shear, severe hail is also possible with more organized
    storms.=20

    However, there is considerable uncertainty in the overall timing,
    coverage, and organization of severe convection this evening, and
    convective trends will continue to be monitored for later weather
    watch issuance.
