    Mesoscale Discussion 2063
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    1016 AM CDT Fri Sep 12 2025

    Areas affected...portions of northeastern Arizona...northwestern New Mexico...southeastern Utah...southwestern Colorado

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

    Valid 121516Z - 121745Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Marginal risk for strong to severe wind and hail will
    continue through the afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...Upper-level divergence from a broad trough and
    advancing jet streak across the western US is bringing forcing for
    ascent across a plume of modest mid-level moisture across across southern/central Arizona into western New Mexico, southern Utah, and
    southern Colorado. This has led to widely scattered thunderstorm
    development through the morning.=20

    Temperatures are warming into the mid to upper 60s, with some breaks
    in the cloud cover. This should allow for insolation and heating
    with additional cooling aloft forecast with the trough. This should
    yield around 500-1000 J/kg of MLCAPE by the afternoon. Steep lapse
    rates and deep layer shear around 30-40 kts will support a few more
    organized cells capable of strong to severe wind and marginally
    severe hail. Coverage of a more organized severe threat remains low
    confidence, and as such a watch is unlikely at this time.
