Convective trends will be monitored for the possibility of a watch. DISCUSSION...A glancing influence from the shortwave trough to the north is resulting in some large-scale ascent and an increase in midlevlel winds this afternoon. Initial storms are increasing in coverage and intensity across northeastern Nevada, and this activity is expected to spread east-northeastward through the afternoon into southwestern Wyoming. The 17Z DPG sounding characterizes the very steep lapse rates (near dry adiabatic up to around 500 mb) in which these storms are forming. This environment will support very strong downdrafts and dry-microburst potential. Recent VWPs from Salt Lake City indicate around 30 knots of mid-to-upper-level flow, which may support some storm organization and propagation. If storms are able to organize into clusters, a severe thunderstorm watch may be considered. ...Jirak/Smith.. 07/15/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!7N7rfsPApC2l4Z3HHNE-0MLdOjyrII225fMg4725DIBXukGBtCpeOl1d0rHdPp7xGAr5JstcJ= 45NmrpAYZJBEdQoTfY$ for graphic product...
