Areas affected...Western Nevada and vicinity
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 242047Z - 242245Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent
SUMMARY...A threat for damaging wind gusts exists this afternoon
into the evening. A WW is not anticipated at this time.
DISCUSSION...Visible satellite imagery has indicated towering
cumulus developing along the Sierra. KRGZ has steadily shown an
increase in reflectivity values over the past half hour. Given these
trends and the approach of a mid-level trough, more wide-spread
initiation is likely in the next hour or so. A modified REV 18Z
sounding shows modest SBCAPE values approaching 1000 J/kg. A
relatively dry sub-cloud layer indicates that a risk of severe wind
gusts will be the main threat with any storms. Shear will be
sufficient for storm organization -- currently at 20-30 kts per RAP
analysis -- and should improve with the approach of the mid-level
wave. Given the expected limited storm coverage and modest buoyancy,
a WW is not expected at this time.
