Mesoscale Discussion 1064
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0437 PM CDT Tue Jun 22 2021
Areas affected...Far northwest Nevada into southeast Oregon
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 222137Z - 222330Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent
SUMMARY...Isolated thunderstorms may pose a damaging wind and hail
threat late this afternoon and into the evening hours. The threat
will remain isolated enough to preclude the need for a watch.
DISCUSSION...GLM data has shown several scattered lightning strikes
across east/southeast OR over the past hour associated with
weak/transient convection. More recently, a slight uptick in
lightning activity and deeper convective towers within a band of
agitated cumulus located along a trough axis are noted from
northwest NV into far southeast OR. Recent mesoanalysis estimates
show upwards of 1000-1500 J/kg MUCAPE over the region as well as
40-50 knots of effective bulk shear. This environment is supportive
of storm organization if a cell can be sustained and gradually
mature. In general, coverage of any strong to severe storms is
expected to be limited given the weak forcing for ascent, and
convection should lose intensity later this evening with the loss of
daytime heating. As such, a watch is not expected.
