SPINNING OVER CENTRAL CANADA AND A STRONG S/W NOW ONSHORE SOUTHERN
OR.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
H3 JET ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS LOOKS TO ALLOW FOR UPPER LEVEL
DIVERGENCE TODAY. 00Z KOAX SOUNDING WITH A PW OF 1.58 MAKES THE
HIGH PW/S IN THE MODELS SEEM REASONABLE. MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES ARE
EXPECTED TO KEEP TEMPS ON THE COOL SIDE BEHIND THE FRONT WITH
EASTERLY FLOW. WAA SOUTH OF THE FRONT WILL RESULT IN HIGH CAPE
WHERE AN EXPLOSION OF HEAVY RAINFALL AND SEVERE STORMS IS POSSIBLE
LATE AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING AS CONVECTION BECOMES SURFACE
BASED. ACROSS THE NORTHWEST CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN
ELEVATED WITH HAIL THE MAIN THREAT. AS S/W OVER THE PACIFIC
REACHES THE REGION BY LATE EVENING THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT...ADDITIONAL TSRA ARE EXPECTED.

FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...MOSTLY CLOUDY WITH THE UPPER TROUGH IN
PLACE. NOTABLY COOLER WITH PERIODS OF TSRA. FAVORED AREA FOR
SEVERE IS ACROSS THE SOUTH THURS WITH THE FRONT CLOSE AND SOME
SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE SLIDES EAST
SATURDAY WITH A WARM FRONT COMING THROUGH FROM THE WEST. THIS MAY
LEAD TO SOME OVERNIGHT CONVECTION. SURFACE TROUGH ON SUNDAY MAY
PROVIDE A FOCUS FOR LATE AFTERNOON TSRA...LIKELY ISOLD TO PERHAPS
SCT. THE NEXT UPPER TROUGH IS THEN PROGGED TO ARRIVE
MONDAY/TUESDAY. SHOULD THIS VERIFY MORE TSRA...SCT TO
NMRS...SEVERE AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN WOULD BE POSSIBLE.

&&

EXTENT MODEL DATA SUGGEST GRADUALLY DETERIORATING CONDITIONS TODAY

PRODUCING LARGE HAIL.

EXCEPT CONDITIONS DETERIORATE LATER IN TIME. ALSO...DEEP SFC BASED
INSTABILITY IS EXPECTED TO TRIGGER SEVERE WEATHER VICINITY KLBF THIS
AFTN AND EVENING WITH LARGE HAIL AND WIND DAMAGE.

&&

RADAR ESTIMATES 5-8 INCHES FELL. THIS IS SUSPECT AND LIKELY
CONTAMINATED QUITE A BIT FROM THE HAIL...HOWEVER...3-4 INCH
AMOUNTS ARE QUITE POSSIBLE. WITH THE OPERATIONAL MODELS KEEPING
