LEADING EDGE OF LARGE SCALE ASCENT IS MOVING NEWD ACROSS NWRN/N
CNTRL WY AND INTO S CNTRL MT...INTO REGION OF INCREASING MOISTURE
AND INSTABILITY. AREA WILL BE MONITORED FOR CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT
AND POSSIBLE WW ISSUANCE.

ALTHOUGH EARLIER CONVECTION WEAKENED AS IT MOVED ACROSS WRN WY...AIR
MASS OVER NERN WY AND SERN MT REMAINS QUITE MOIST WITH DEW POINTS
NEAR 60F WHICH IS CONTRIBUTING TO AN UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH
MUCAPE OF 1500-2500 J/KG. LATEST VISIBLE IMAGERY INDICATES
CONVECTION INITIATING ON THE NERN SLOPES OF BIG HORN MTNS...AND THIS
ACTIVITY MAY MOVE NEWD INTO A MORE UNSTABLE AIR MASS. SWLY MID

ARE SUPPORTIVE OF ORGANIZED CONVECTION INCLUDING ISOLATED
SUPERCELLS. A WW MAY BE NEEDED IF STORMS INTENSIFY AND MOVE OFF THE
HIGHER TERRAIN.
