VALID 251925Z - 252130Z

SUMMARY...ISOLATED LARGE HAIL AND SEVERE GUSTS ARE POSSIBLE THIS

DISCUSSION...AN UPPER-LEVEL LOW IS MOVING SLOWLY EAST-SOUTHEASTWARD
IN CENTRAL CALIFORNIA. A WEAK SURFACE LOW IN THE LOWER COLORADO
VALLEY IS PRESENT ALONG WITH A WARM FRONT ACROSS CENTRAL INTO
SOUTHEAST ARIZONA. STRONG HEATING OF A MOIST (MID/UPPER 50S F
DEWPOINTS) AIRMASS HAS PROMOTED WIDELY SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT LATE THIS MORNING INTO EARLY AFTERNOON. SOME MID-LEVEL
SUBSIDENCE IS NOTED ON THE 18Z TUS SOUNDING; HOWEVER, FORCING FOR
ASCENT SHOULD INCREASE STEADILY THROUGH THE AFTERNOON/EVENING AS THE
UPPER LOW APPROACHES.
WITH CONTINUED HEATING ALONG THE SURFACE BOUNDARY AND THE MOGOLLON
RIM, SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS STORMS WILL DEVELOP. SHEAR IS NOT
PARTICULARLY STRONG (AROUND 20-25 KTS 0-6 KM PER AREA VAD DATA), BUT
WILL MARGINALLY INCREASE LATER TODAY. THE STRONGEST STORMS WILL BE
CAPABLE OF ISOLATED LARGE HAIL. SEVERE GUSTS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE
GIVEN THE WELL-MIXED BOUNDARY LAYER.
