Areas affected...Parts of southeast AZ

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

Valid 080335Z - 080530Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

SUMMARY...Strong to locally severe gusts are possible into late
evening.

DISCUSSION...Some increase in storm coverage and intensity has been
noted within the last hour to the northeast of Tucson, with cooling
cloud tops noted on IR imagery. This uptick has occurred as
southwesterly moving outflow interacts with local terrain features
and moderate buoyancy. With increasing CINH downstream of this
convection, the magnitude and longevity of any severe threat remains
uncertain. However, weak northeasterly steering flow will allow
outflow to continue spreading southwestward. In the presence of a
remnant well-mixed boundary layer and steep low-level lapse rates,
potential for strong to locally severe gusts may continue into the
late evening, even if deep convection begins to weaken with time.
