Large hail and damaging winds are the primary concerns. A watch may eventually be needed for parts of the area. DISCUSSION...Latest surface observations indicate a surface boundary/wind shift extending roughly from the Palmer Divide northeastward into southwestern NE -- where cumulus continues to deepen and isolated convective initiation is ongoing. Additional convective development is noted along the higher terrain from CO southward into NM. Through this corridor, continued diurnal heating of a moist outflow-modified air mass (middle 50s to lower/middle 60s dewpoints) beneath steep midlevel lapse rates will yield moderate surface-based instability. Farther northeast in south-central NE, an additional recovering outflow boundary (evident in visible satellite loops) may also provide a focus for thunderstorm development -- aided by pockets of heating through cloud breaks. With a belt of 30-40 kt midlevel westerlies (per regional VWP) atop sheltered east-northeasterly low-level flow, long/mostly straight hodographs (40-50 kt of effective shear) will favor splitting supercells and organized clusters capable of large hail and severe winds. There is uncertainty on overall convective evolution and coverage of storms given lingering inhibition associated with earlier outflow and generally weak large-scale ascent, though a watch may eventually be needed for parts of the area. ...Weinman/Hart.. 07/19/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_5lsguEEsAfb-Vl5WnDo3Sul4TQfv6Fz-VWr16p5WC3yENqJQFE5ew1pP2ZGw7EWihQ-01Xl6= lwTWn2n0KI0q5Gs84I$ for graphic product...
