    Areas affected...portions of the Front Range of Colorado

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

    Valid 210219Z - 210315Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...A pair of supercells moving south along the I-25 corridor
    may pose a risk for hail and severe gusts for a couple more hours
    tonight. The longevity and spatial extent of the threat is
    uncertain.

    DISCUSSION...As of 0210 UTC, a pair of supercells have evolved
    within the upslope flow regime across eastern CO. These storms have
    produced reports of measured severe hail and wind gusts over the
    last hour. Extrapolation places these storms near Denver in the next
    hour. Around 1000 J/kg of MUCAPE and 35-40 kt of northerly
    deep-layer shear will remain sufficient for storm organization this
    evening. Some risk for severe hail and damaging gusts could continue
    as these storms track along and south of the Metro this evening. A
    complicating factor is the presence of westward surging outflow from
    prior convection over the adjacent plains. With the loss of diurnal
    heating and cooler surface temperatures post outflow, surface
    stabilization is expected. However, it remains unclear how long it
    will take for the decrease in instability to affect these storms.
    Convective trends are being monitored, but the severe risk could
    persist for another couple of hours in and south of the Denver metro
    before weakening later this evening.
