Weather watch issuance is not anticipated at this time. DISCUSSION...A line of strong to severe thunderstorms has loosely organized along the leading edge of its combined outflows. These storms will be capable of intermittent severe wind gusts approaching 60 MPH, but are expected to diminish heading into the evening. Recent radar trends and HRRR-based mesoanalysis show the convective complex moving into an area of rain-cooled air and greater MLCINH, suggesting that the available buoyancy for these storms is short-lived. Given these factors, weather watch issuance is not anticipated at this time. ..Halbert/Thompson.. 07/09/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
