Hail and strong gusts may occur with stronger storms. DISCUSSION...Scattered thunderstorms have developed this afternoon within the post-outflow airmass. While early day convection and cloud cover have impacted the airmass to some degree, some recovery is apparent as temperatures have warmed into the upper 70s to low 80s and dewpoints have been maintained in the upper 60s to low 70s. As a result, capping is eroding, and MLCAPE has increased to 1000-2000 J/kg. Ongoing storms may be somewhat elevated initially, but could become surface-based with time. Effective shear magnitudes greater than 40 kt and steep midlevel lapse rates suggests robust updrafts supporting isolated large hail and strong/severe gusts will be possible. Given the influence of outflow and modification of the airmass from morning convection, convective evolution remains somewhat uncertain. Portions of the area may eventually need a severe thunderstorm watch, but timing and location is uncertain. ...Leitman/Smith.. 07/22/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!7Rm3LvIxEncosDAmG2B5NkfLkOBdbbQtZf9KniIiU15kFqZl7a66kkxrX_-7kprn8YVGndKhs= rD6kdXlOqDWi0Nz_i0$ for graphic product...
