    Areas affected...Parts of far eastern WY...northeast CO...and the NE
    Panhandle

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 443...

    Valid 212240Z - 220015Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 443
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The greatest threat for large hail, severe/damaging winds,
    and perhaps a tornado should spread eastward this evening over the
    Nebraska Panhandle and northeast Colorado.

    DISCUSSION...Weak low-level upslope flow is aiding widely spaced
    supercells across far eastern WY into northeast CO and the western
    NE Panhandle early this evening. Surface dewpoints and low-level
    moisture increase with eastward extent across these areas based on
    latest observations, with greater instability also being estimated
    by recent mesoanalysis. Strong deep-layer shear should continue to
    support a supercell mode in the short term, with large to isolated
    very large hail around 1.5-2.5 inches in diameter possible.
    Severe/damaging downdraft winds around 60-70 mph may also occur,
    especially where low-level lapse rates have become steepened with
    daytime heating. The southern supercell in northeast CO is the
    strongest storm across this region at the moment. It should have
    access to an unimpeded low-level moisture feed, and will likely
    maintain its intensity in the short term. A brief tornado may also
    occur this evening, particularly if supercells can be maintained
    farther east into the NE Panhandle where greater low-level
    moisture/lower LCLs are present. Based on latest observational
    trends, Severe Thunderstorm Watch 443 has been locally extended in
    area to include more of the western NE Panhandle and northeast CO.
