    Areas affected...Northeast UT...Southern WY...Northwest CO

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

    Valid 271906Z - 272200Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms capable of damaging gusts from 45 to 65 mph
    are possible across northeast Utah, southern Wyoming, and northwest
    Colorado this afternoon and evening.

    DISCUSSION...Recent visible satellite imagery shows a large area of
    building cumulus from central/northeast UT into northwest CO and
    southern WY. This cumulus is building along and just ahead of a
    low-amplitude shortwave trough moving into the region. Convective
    initiation has already occurred in the few places, with thunderstorm
    coverage expected to continue increasing over the next few hours as
    the airmass heats and destabilizes, and the shortwave continues
    eastward.=20

    Overall buoyancy will likely remain modest (i.e. around 500 J/kg of
    MLCAPE), and the storm mode is expected to remain multicellular.
    Even so, high cloud bases and moderate mid-level flow could still
    result in a few strong, negatively buoyant downdrafts capable of
    gusts from 45 to 65 mph across the region this afternoon and
    evening.
