EXTENDS FM GREELEY TO DIA TO LIMON.  BEST SFC BASED CAPES ARE EAST
OF THIS LINE WITH LAPS VALUES OF 1500-2100 J/KG.  SOME CIN STILL
PRESENT AS WELL.  BOTTOM LINE IS THERE IS STILL SOME POTENTIAL FOR
ISOLD SVR STORMS THIS AFTN/EVNG...BUT THIS WILL LIKELY BE EAST OF

SOUNDINGS SHOW GOOD DIRECTIONAL SHEAR BUT THE STORM MOTIONS ARE LESS

MAIN CONCERN VS LARGE HAIL...BUT THERE COULD BE ENOUGH SHEAR FOR

RANGE IN THE AFTN.  NO LIFTING MECHANISMS APPARANT UPSTAIRS TO AID
DEEP CONVECTION...SO WILL NEED TO RELY ON AFTN HEATING...UPSLOPE AND
