Mesoscale Discussion 0883
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0434 PM CDT Thu May 28 2026

Areas affected...eastern Washington...the Idaho Panhandle...and far
northwest Montana

Concerning...Severe potential...Severe Thunderstorm Watch likely=20

Valid 282134Z - 282330Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

SUMMARY...The threat for severe thunderstorms capable of 60-75 mph
wind gusts and hail up to golf-ball size is expected to increase
from south to north across the discussion area this afternoon into
evening. A Severe Thunderstorm Watch will likely be required.

DISCUSSION...Visible satellite and mosaic radar data indicate
gradually deepening convection along the Salmon River Mountains and
adjacent high terrain of the southern ID Panhandle into the
Bitterroot Mountains in western MT. Forcing for ascent downstream
from a vigorous short-wave trough pivoting northwest through the
northern Great Basin in conjunction with heating/destabilization
along the high terrain are contributing to the convective
development, with scattered thunderstorms eventually evolving in
these areas.=20

Strong daytime heating across the discussion area will combine with
boundary-layer dewpoints in the 50s to support further air mass
destabilization through the peak of the diurnal heating cycle, with
the presence of steep low/mid-level lapse rates yielding MLCAPE as
high as 1500-2500 J/kg. The destabilization process will coincide
with gradually strengthening mid- to high-level winds with effective
bulk shear increasing to 30-40 kt, which will favor organized storm
modes, including supercells and bowing structures capable of wind
gusts up to 60-75 mph and hail up to golf-ball size.
