Areas affected...Central/Southern UT

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

Valid 262017Z - 262215Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

SUMMARY...Isolated strong wind gusts are possible for the next
several hours.

DISCUSSION...Amidst filtered sunshine and deep mixing, temperatures
have warmed into the 70s across much of central and southern UT.
This has eroded preceding convective inhibition and allowed for the
development of scattered thunderstorms. Instability is modest (i.e.
MLCAPE around 500 J/kg) and much of the region is displaced south of
the stronger flow aloft and vertical shear. Even so, unidirectional
wind profiles support quick storm motion and the steep low-level
lapse rates will aid in strengthening downdrafts. As such, sporadic
instances of strong wind gusts are possible. Isolated/marginal
nature of the severe threat will preclude the need for a watch.
