A watch is not anticipated. DISCUSSION...A weak shortwave trough across the High Plains has triggered storms across the region. These storms have moved off of the higher terrain of Wyoming and Colorado eastward onto the Plains. Relatively weak flow aloft means convection has organized into multicell clusters and line segments in an environment with a modestly dry boundary layer and steep low-level lapse rates. All these factors mean these storms have a risk for severe gusts, particularly with the more intense clusters of storms. Some marginally severe hail is also possible, but the weak deep-layer shear may limit the hail threat. Due to the sparse coverage of convection, a watch is not anticipated. ..Supinie/Gleason.. 07/04/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...LBF...UNR...GLD...BOU...CYS...
