   Areas affected...portions of eastern Idaho...northern Utah...western
   Wyoming...far southern Montana

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

   Valid 122048Z - 122245Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

   SUMMARY...A few more severe gusts may occur with the stronger storms
   over the next few hours, especially in association with the primary
   band of convection over southeastern ID into northern UT.

   DISCUSSION...Scattered thunderstorms have developed over portions of
   the central Rockies over the past few hours with the approach of a
   500 mb vort max. A relatively more pronounced band of thunderstorms
   has become established over southeastern ID into northern UT, where
   multiple 50+ kt convective wind gusts have been measured. Given up
   to 1000 J/kg SBCAPE preceding this convective band (per 20Z
   mesoanalysis), additional severe gusts remain possible, both with
   this band, and perhaps with storms out ahead of it
