Given the localized nature of any severe threat, weather watch issuance is not expected at this time. DISCUSSION...Daytime heating and boundary-layer mixing over the Central and Front Range of the Rocky Mountains has resulted in widespread thunderstorm development that is expected to continue and persist into eastern Colorado. With most unstable CAPE only reaching 500-1000 J/kg and a relative dearth of deep-layer vertical shear, there is not much environmental support for widespread organized severe convection. However, with freezing levels near the surface-based parcel LFC heights, and inverted-V boundary layer profiles evident in proximity soundings, some isolated incidents of <=3D 1.25 in hail and severe wind gusts (largely <=3D 60 MPH) are possible. Some locally higher wind gusts could occur if any convection develops leading-edge outflow or shows signs of transient organization into linear clusters. ...Halbert/Smith.. 07/30/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!7UzsJq5tl0jEr9f3VQ3n0PadmX0K83fWvDAn8OmoFKPfOeJixoRxLQDMfxkl0DY-hR8edYBMy= oh3wDFQSdOYHSTuefM$ for graphic product...
