    Areas affected...northwest Arizona to north-central Utah

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

    Valid 171752Z - 171945Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...Severe wind gusts are possible with high-based storms this
    afternoon and evening from northwest Arizona to north-central Utah.

    DISCUSSION...Numerous elevated thunderstorms developed earlier this
    morning on the leading edge of a northward surge of monsoon
    moisture. In the wake of this convection, clear skies have allowed
    for sufficient surface heating which, when combined with the
    increasing low-level moisture, has resulted in moderate
    destabilization. SPC mesoanalysis suggests inhibition has mostly
    eroded. Therefore, surface-based storms, with likely a greater
    severe wind threat, are possible within the next 1 to 2 hours as
    further warming/moistening occurs. An environment this afternoon
    featuring high-based storms and a deeply-mixed boundary layer with
    1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE and 25-30 knots of effective shear should
    support some threat for severe wind gusts. With multiple rounds of
    storms possible, a severe thunderstorm watch may be needed to
    address this threat.
