   Areas affected...far northern Arizona into north-central Utah

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 630...

   Valid 172101Z - 172230Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 630
   continues.

   SUMMARY...Strong to severe storms with primarily a severe wind
   threat will persist this afternoon and evening across northern
   Arizona and much of Utah.

   DISCUSSION...Widespread convective activity with occasional severe
   wind gusts has occurred across Utah thus far this afternoon. This
   widespread coverage has limited destabilization and thus a
   greater/more focused severe weather threat. However, destabilization
   continues on the southwestern periphery and continued height falls
   ahead of the approaching western CONUS trough should lead to
   additional development through the afternoon/evening. Expect this
   isolated to scattered severe weather threat to persist through
   sunset before weakening with diurnal stabilization.
