    Areas affected...Utah

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 252004Z - 252200Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Severe downburst winds will be possible through early
    evening. However, this threat should be sufficiently scattered to
    preclude watch issuance.

    DISCUSSION...Regional radar and GOES IR imagery depicts steady
    strengthening of convection across eastern NV into central and
    northwest UT. Concurrently, mostly clear skies and strong diurnal
    heating downstream has allowed for temperatures to climb into the
    upper 80s and low 90s, which has nearly eliminated MLCIN based on
    the 18 UTC SLC sounding. This RAOB also depicted a fairly dry
    boundary layer with 0-3 km lapse rates of nearly 9 C/km that will be
    favorable for downdraft accelerations and strong to severe downburst
    winds. Consequently, the potential for severe wind gusts should
    increase over the next few hours as developing convection continues
    to intensify and spreads east/northeast through early evening.
    Latest time-lagged ensemble guidance appears to be capturing current
    convective trends well and suggests that convective coverage should
    remain sufficiently isolated to preclude watch issuance, but gusts
    up to 60-70 mph appear possible with the strongest storms.
