DISCUSSION...A nearly-stationary supercell has developed over the southern Black Hills with a weaker discrete cell to its north. The 18Z UNR sounding and recent VWP data sampled weak lower-level flow. Moderate speed shear in the upper portion of the buoyancy profile along with a 700-500 mb lapse rate of 7.5 to 8.0 C/km will remain supportive of mid-level updraft rotation and a large hail threat. Near-term guidance suggests this activity should eventually decay in place, before additional storm development occurs to its south/southeast into early evening. Initial high-based Cu has recently formed across the western NE Panhandle and may be the precursor to a separate multicell cluster in a few hours. ...Grams/Mosier.. 08/17/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!-nKeJbZY-KFgDOX92adseg39vhIShWLc-vQcZ9RQt3GsXbjiyT0E1nesNAGW_DBDpb2bh_Vwg= uYtisIXfgYM8rHk_LU$ for graphic product...
