Valid 260134Z - 260300Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 514 continues. SUMMARY...A few severe gusts remain possible through the evening hours. DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms have shown a slight decreasing trend in overall coverage and intensity over the past hour. Nonetheless, a few intense convective cells remain in progress, particularly over Stillwater County, MT. Surface temperatures range from 90-100 F ahead of the ongoing storms, suggesting that a well-mixed boundary layer remains in place to support a few more potentially severe gusts with the stronger storm cores. However, the severe threat should gradually subside in a few hours with the onset of nocturnal cooling. ..Squitieri.. 07/26/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
