.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Saturday)
Issued at 1243 PM MDT Fri Jul 5 2019

Sunshine is starting to peak through some lingering low to mid
level clouds over the southeastern portion of the High Plains and
adjacent Nebraska Panhandle. This will work to delay convective
initiation by capping the atmosphere ahead of another day of
isolated severe thunderstorm potential. Severe thunderstorms will
follow east and southeasterly tracks east of the Laramie Range,
though focused mainly along the I-80 corridor. A potent
shortwave trough will again pass through the upper level
southwesterly flow, and coupled with a decent southwesterly BL
layer flow, atmospheric instability will spike with MLCAPE values
near 2000 J/kg, steep mid-level lapse rates and decent shear and
storm relative helicity values. At the surface, an upslope flow
has kept dewpoints in the mid-50s and as the day heats up, the low
to mid level cloud deck will finally erode out, creating the
potential for strong to severe thunderstorms to initiate. Timing
for thunderstorms looks to begin around 1 PM MDT and continue
through about 8 PM MDT. Isolated to scattered supercells that
develop today will be capable of producing golf ball size hail and
damaging winds. An isolated tornado or two cannot be ruled out.

Conditions quiet overnight with warm temperatures expected again.
This will aid in keeping humidities relatively high with the
addition of upslope flow yet again tomorrow afternoon, for
another humid day Saturday, with another chance for severe
thunderstorms across the High Plains tomorrow afternoon. Timing
will be similar to today's. The major difference between today
and tomorrow's storms will be slightly higher PWATs and slower
storm motion, which will lead to the higher probability of heavy
rain with storms, leading to flash flooding concerns. Will
continue to monitor tomorrow's setup with forecast updates.

.LONG TERM...(Saturday night through Friday)
Issued at 1243 PM MDT Fri Jul 5 2019

Afternoon and evening thunderstorms continue each day under a
southwesterly flow aloft, shortwave troughs ejecting across the
High PLains each day, and upslope flow each afternoon, continuing through
the weekend. A pattern change looks to be in store as early as
Tuesday as a ridge of high pressure begins to build into the
region. A warming trend and decreasing humidities should take
hold by the end of next week. Isolated thunderstorms under the
dirty ridge will lead to isolated thunderstorm possibilities
through the period.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Saturday afternoon)
Issued at 1140 AM MDT Fri Jul 5 2019

Latest satellite loop was showing things fairly capped mainly east
of the Laramie Range. However, we are starting to see moderate
cumulus developing over the Laramie Range. This convection will
continue to develop and spread east-northeast this afternoon with
some of the stronger storms propagating southeast. Timing of the
convection will be around 20-22Z. The bulk of these storms will
dissipate after sunset with some lower ceilings developing once
again after 08z or so.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 1243 PM MDT Fri Jul 5 2019

Low humidities and heightened winds today across Carbon County
will create a brief window for heightened fire weather concerns
today, though they will be below RFW criteria. High humidities
elsewhere and green fuels have resulted in low fire weather
concerns overall. The active and wet weather pattern will continue
through the weekend and into the beginning portion of next week.
However, looking for a pattern change by midweek with a ridge
building in, warming temps and decreasing humidities.
