Mesoscale Discussion 1361 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0358 PM CDT Fri Jun 21 2024 Areas affected...Central Montana Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 442... Valid 212058Z - 212230Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 442 continues. SUMMARY...The severe thunderstorm threat continues for WW 442. The threat for damaging winds and hail is greatest in Central MT where two isolated supercells have developed and begun tracking east-southeast. Local WW extension may be needed further N into Phillips County due to a southeastward moving supercell in Blaine County. DISCUSSION...Thunderstorm coverage has increased this afternoon over the northern Rockies in W MT, with clusters of cells beginning to move off of the higher terrain into the better buoyancy and shear. These cells are capable of producing 1+ inch hail and damaging winds. In Central MT, two isolated supercells have developed and begun moving east-southeast. These storms are in an environment of 1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE and 45-50 kts of deep layer shear, supporting a continued damaging wind and large hail threat. Further east in Blaine County, near the Canadian border, a storm has developed that may track outside of the watch area, warranting local WW extension. ..Halbert/Weinman.. 06/21/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
