A few instances of large hail and strong/severe gusts are possible. DISCUSSION...Isolated thunderstorms are developing this afternoon within low-level convergence/upslope. Strong heating has allowed temperatures to climb into the low to mid 80s F behind morning convection and outflow. South/southeasterly low-level winds have maintained mid-60s F dewpoints beneath steep midlevel lapse rates. This is fostering moderate destabilization, with 1000-2000 J/kg MLCAPE noted in 20z mesoanalysis. Vertically veering winds profiles, with increasing northwesterly flow aloft is contributing to fairly robust shear, with effective shear magnitudes greater than 40 kts apparent in regional VWP and mesoanalysis data. This environment will support organized cells capable of producing large hail and strong/severe gusts. Convective coverage remains uncertain, but could increase with southward extent toward evening. This area is being monitored for possible severe thunderstorm watch issuance. ...Leitman/Smith.. 08/03/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!6OgRxrRX4NxqsoFWloS9MlLg81OboPkO5L2ZJNQbbII-sIbLE0mP3dgrSFniGnZbCvtRMjg2D= LAAhvgtMZP6CxpDSTM$ for graphic product...
