    Mesoscale Discussion 1313

    Areas affected...Parts of southern Montana into far northern Wyoming

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 161953Z - 162200Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Widely scattered storms are possible southern
    Montana/northern Wyoming. Supercells capable of large hail and
    severe winds are expected. Though timing is uncertain, a watch is
    possible this afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...Modestly moist upslope flow and an approaching
    mid-level trough have promoted thunderstorm development within the
    terrain of south-central Montana. This has occurred north of a band
    of cirrus over much of Wyoming. While these storms have been slow to
    intensify, continued surface heating this afternoon will increase
    MLCAPE values to over 1000 J/kg. Effective shear of 45-55 kts will
    help to organize convection into supercells capable of large hail
    and severe wind gusts. Even with the approaching trough, mid-level
    height falls will generally remain neutral until later in the
    evening. It is not clear what storm coverage will be, but at least
    widely scattered storms are possible with additional development
    occurring in northern Wyoming near the Big Horns. Another point of
    uncertainty is how far south/east activity will go given greater
    inhibition underneath the cirrus canopy.
