Due to the relatively isolated nature of the severe threat, a severe weather watch appears unlikely, but trends will be monitored. DISCUSSION...Precipitable water in excess of 1 inch is advecting northward in a narrow plume, near and to the west of the Wasatch toward the mountains of southwestern Montana. This is occurring in advance of a mid-level trough and embedded cyclonic circulation now progressing east-northeastward across the northern Intermountain Region, and contributing to modest destabilization with daytime heating. Mixed-layer CAPE is now in excess of 1000 J/kg, with large-scale forcing for ascent contributing to weakening inhibition and increasing scattered thunderstorm development. Into and through 21-23Z, a gradual further intensification of storms appears likely, aided by increasingly unstable low-level storm-relative inflow, in the presence of strengthening westerly mid/upper wind fields, including 30-50 kt in the 500-300 mb layer.=20 The evolution of widely scattered supercells is possible, accompanied by a risk for severe hail and locally strong surface gusts. ...Kerr/Mosier.. 08/13/2024 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!-82GAS3ymDmpduY07wbbwP7ZjBXe81mz_4gIKYtv6qQQU-mF9eI06wUq0bXx-kwNNogzFD4tN= C9DGg9ZRfgOg1qVTK4$ for graphic product...
