   Mesoscale Discussion 1348
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0945 PM CDT Sun Jul 25 2021

   Areas affected...Southern Nevada and portions of northwest Arizona
   and southeast California

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

   Valid 260245Z - 260415Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

   SUMMARY...A cluster of storms capable of severe wind gusts is moving
   through southern Nevada.

   DISCUSSION...A cluster of storms has continued southwestward and has
   become more organized as it moves off of the terrain and toward the
   Las Vegas valley. A wind gust of 70 mph was recently measured at
   Hoover Dam. Temperatures still remain around 100 degrees in Las
   Vegas, which provides ample instability for additional strong
   development. Expect some severe wind gusts across southern Nevada in
   the next 1 to 2 hours with the chance for a significant (75+ mph)
   wind gust where the strongest storm cores collapse. This cluster may
   continue to pose a threat for severe wind gusts for a few more hours
   but severity should wane as the boundary layer begins to cool.
