Marginally severe hail and locally damaging gusts will be possible. DISCUSSION...Latest radar data from MBX shows an isolated thunderstorm evolving eastward along a NNE/SSW-oriented surface boundary/wind shift this afternoon. Within the pre-convective environment, modified RAP forecast soundings indicate strong surface-based instability driven by a moist/well-mixed boundary layer (lower 70s dewpoints) beneath steep lapse rates in the 850-500-mb layer. While deep-layer flow/shear is not overly strong, some increase in midlevel westerly flow is expected ahead of an approaching midlevel jet streak currently crossing parts of SK Canada into early evening. As a result, around 25 kt of effective shear and the aforementioned strong instability could favor a couple loosely organized thunderstorms capable of marginally severe hail and locally damaging gusts. The overall severe threat is expected to remain too isolated/marginal for a watch. ...Weinman/Hart.. 07/02/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_8vaBzrELeCeYFiBrXBQl04F1kLEIbeyNuxrUr55qVxZ3jQGKphO17eZEAFjQNlUM6uoqBXTo= l-whpfQsOkptTGxLTU$ for graphic product...
