Areas affected...Parts of east-central/southeast Colorado into
northeast New Mexico

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

Valid 012150Z - 012345Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...Strong to severe storms will spread eastward into this
evening, posing a risk of isolated large hail and locally severe
wind gusts. A watch is not currently expected, though trends are
being monitored.

DISCUSSION...Widely scattered thunderstorms are evolving along the
I-25 corridor in east-central/southeast CO into northeast NM, which
are likely being aided by a passing upper-level jet streak evident
in water-vapor imagery and VWP data. While instability is marginal
along the higher terrain, steep deep-layer lapse rates and an
elongated upper-level hodograph will support isolated large hail
with the ongoing high-based storms as they advance eastward across
the I-25 corridor. With time, storms will move eastward into an
increasingly warm/moist air mass over the CO Plains. Here, higher
surface-based buoyancy and an elongated/straight mid/upper-level
hodograph (around 25-30 kt of effective shear) should favor a couple
loosely organized eastward-moving clusters, capable of producing
severe wind gusts and isolated hail. Given the modest deep-layer
shear, storms may tend to be outflow dominant, and a watch is not
currently expected at this time.
