The wider storm

On May 10th, instability increased across higher terrain in southwest Idaho ahead of an incoming upper-level trough. This allowed for thunderstorms to develop across southwest Idaho. With a dry boundary layer and inverted-V soundings, thunderstorm wind gusts were the primary hazard associated with the storms.
