The stronger storms will be capable of large hail (1-3 inches in diameter) as they organize into supercells during the late afternoon and early evening. A severe thunderstorm watch is likely for most of the discussion area. DISCUSSION...Visible satellite imagery shows the initial stages of glaciation with thunderstorms near Douglas, WY and convective initiation is likely northwest of Cheyenne prior to 2pm MDT.=20 Surface analysis indicates a moist axis extending from I-70 near the CO/KS border northwestward to near the CO/WY/NE border and into eastern WY. Surface temperatures have warmed into the lower 80s east of the higher terrain wand surface dewpoints range in the 50s.=20 RAP-model forecast soundings show steep low-level and 700-500 mb lapse rates (in excess of 8 deg C/km). Weak low-level upslope flow beneath strengthening southwesterly flow in the mid to upper levels has resulted in an elongated hodograph. The steep lapse rates/moderate buoyancy and hodographs will strongly favor discrete thunderstorms. Once the stronger updrafts become established/mature, supercells capable of large to very large hail will be possible. A brief tornado is possible late this afternoon/early evening. Isolated severe gusts will become a more prevalent threat later this evening as storms move farther east into richer moisture and some storms evolve into a small cluster. ...Smith/Guyer.. 06/28/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_QSVa4b2uYXqWDGg9Ck9sLBAGpUkf9PtTxRkUAFYgoeBQ6RQLWx-n2Aov_4-Y2-kF3f0r5WaC= zVjhmQXZNZxT6hMf04$ for graphic product...
