    Areas affected...eastern Colorado and western Kansas.

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 022011Z - 022215Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Scattered severe wind gusts are possible this
    afternoon/evening.

    DISCUSSION...A supercell has developed on the Raton Mesa where SPC
    HRRR-based mesoanalysis shows minimal inhibition. Additional storms
    have started to develop farther northeast from this storm along the
    dryline into an increasingly unstable airmass. It is unclear whether
    these storms will continue to develop northeast along the boundary
    or if they will cluster and move into western Kansas, but either
    way, a region of greater severe wind threat may exits into western
    Kansas this afternoon/evening where 2500-3500 J/kg MLCAPE exists
    with mid-level flow of 25 to 30 knots, sufficient for some multicell
    storms. If sufficient clustering occurs this evening, a severe
    thunderstorm watch may need to be issued.
