Diurnal heating\n has helped boost surface temperatures into the low 60s F, beneath 8+\n C/km mid-level lapse rates, yielding MLCAPE over 500 J/kg (per 19Z\n mesoanalysis). Buoyancy should only increase through the afternoon\n with continued heating, resulting in increased storm coverage and\n intensity. While tropospheric flow will remain generally\n unidirectional, vertical speed shear will support organized\n multicells and transient supercells as the primary modes of\n convection. Elongated, straight hodographs suggest that severe hail\n will be the main threat, though a couple of severe gusts are also\n possible. The overall severe threat should remain isolated though,\n so a WW issuance is not currently anticipated.\n\n ..Squitieri/Mosier.. 04/10/2026\n\n ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...\n\n ATTN...WFO...BOI...LKN...REV...\n\n LAT...LON 39281965 40801939 41881901 42251817 42411656 42301592\n 42021547 41641528 41031524 40341553 39841610 39451676\n 39211715 39081757 38981807 38921846 38911890 39281965\n\n MOST PROBABLE PEAK HAIL SIZE...UP TO 1.25 IN\n\n\n\nRead more",
