Areas affected...Parts of eastern CO into western KS and a small
part of the NE Panhandle

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

Valid 272013Z - 272215Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...Strong to locally severe storms are possible later this
afternoon into this evening.

DISCUSSION...Clearing in the wake of earlier mid/high-level
cloudiness has allowed for modest diurnal heating from eastern CO
into west-central/southwest KS. Temperatures aloft are relatively
warm, but boundary-layer warming and sufficient low-level moisture
are supporting MLCAPE of near/above 1000 J/kg, with locally greater
values across southwest KS. Weak storms have already developed near
the CO Front Range, with building cumulus noted in the vicinity of
multiple surface confluence zones across northeast CO, east-central
CO, and southeast CO into southwest KS.=20

Westerly midlevel flow is relatively modest (generally 20-25 kt),
but sufficient veering in the wind profile is supporting effective
shear of 25-30 kt. With time, a few organized multicells and perhaps
a marginal supercell or two could evolve as developing convection
deepens and matures through late afternoon. The strongest cells
could produce isolated hail, though generally weak midlevel lapse
rates will tend to limit the magnitude of the hail threat. Outflow
amalgamation could result in loosely organized upscale growth by
early evening, with a threat for strong to locally severe gusts.
