SHOWS SHORT WAVE TROUGH CURRENTLY MOVING ACROSS SOUTHEAST WYOMING.
ALTHOUGH THE STRONGEST PART OF THE WAVE WILL BE NORTH OF FORECAST

LATEST RUN OF THE HRRR MODEL CONTINUES TO PRODUCE SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS OVER EASTERN COLORADO FROM 21Z-23Z...WITH STORMS
MOVING OVER THE REST OF THE AREA AFTER THAT TIME. HRRR MAY BE
OVERDONE WITH THE AMOUNT OF COVERAGE...BUT HAS THE GENERAL IDEA.
BOTH THE NAM/GFS ALSO SHOW CONVECTION ADVECTING OVER MOST OF THE
AREA. THEREFORE...WILL CONTINUE WITH SCATTERED POPS THROUGH
MIDNIGHT. AS MENTIONED EARLIER...LOW LEVEL SHEAR IS MINIMAL.
SOUNDING PROFILES...HOWEVER..HAVE AN INVERTED-V SIGNATURE.
SO...SOME CONVECTIVE WIND GUSTS WILL APPROACH SEVERE LIMITS...THOUGH
