A watch is not expected this afternoon. DISCUSSION...Cumulus towers continue to deepen along and east of the Cascades in southwest Oregon. This is in response to an approaching shortwave trough. While these thunderstorms have been slow to move off of the terrain thus far, continued heating in southern/eastern Oregon will likely erode remaining MLCIN within the next 1-2 hours. Additional storm development is likely through the afternoon as well. With elevated convection associated with a small-scale perturbation moving through northeast Oregon, development within the Blue Mountains is less certain. However, additional heating during the afternoon may still be sufficient for this to occur. Steep low and mid-level lapse rates and 20-25 kts of shear (which will marginally improve to near 30 kts with time) will result in marginally organized storms capable of severe wind gusts. Thermodynamic profiles will be conducive to mainly small hail, but isolated hail near 1 inch could occur in the most intense storms. ...Wendt/Smith.. 08/03/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_HSoOvrQAlgl0G2-HmyPskh43d_FWhsPo5bHrG6hct7qxfKrM3VYRHjsNomQqlkicfj5xn7H-= Dt7BEhBRhH6T6lKIik$ for graphic product...
