DISCUSSION...High-based thunderstorms are developing atop a dry boundary layer, where 40-50 T/Td spreads are already in place. RAP forecast soundings, and the DPG 18Z observed sounding, all depict inverted-v profiles extending up to 500 mb, with 20-40 kts of southwesterly flow constrained to the buoyant/cloud-bearing layer. Given 0-3 km lapse rates already exceeding 9 C/km in spots, conditions are favorable for fast-moving thunderstorms capable of producing dry downbursts, with strong erratic wind gusts possible. A few of these gusts may exceed 50 kts. However, the overall severe risk should remain widely scattered at best, so a Severe Thunderstorm Watch issuance is not currently anticipated. ...Squitieri/Mosier.. 08/14/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!8iufuWFmDaM0y7Hn061R1-b29YbSd2vsskVhQbK5OkVud96gFb5vcz7v5wm1AOKmsSPabB4Sh= 0JtpXCQBe0ZkX76ocE$ for graphic product...
