    Areas affected...portions of eastern Colorado into far northwestern
    Kansas and southwestern Nebraska

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 288...

    Valid 082314Z - 090045Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 288 continues.

    SUMMARY...Severe threat continues within WW288. A corridor of better
    tornado potential may evolve over the next couple of hours in
    northeastern Colorado.

    DISCUSSION...Supercells continue to move east of the Denver metro
    this evening. These have produced many instances of large hail
    around 1-1.5 inches in diameter. Recent radar analysis shows an
    increase in low level rotation as these storms track eastward. These
    supercells are entering a zone of better low level moisture with dew
    points in the mid 50s to 60s F. Within this zone, backed easterly
    upslope flow will promote better low level curvature and streamwise
    vorticity, locally enhancing the tornado potential while discrete
    supercells remain. Eventually, clustering and upscale growth will
    favor a transition to a greater damaging wind threat.
