The wider storm

Showers and thunderstorms erupted during the afternoon hours and moved across the lower elevations of western Wyoming. Unseasonably hot weather, a very dry lower atmosphere, and gradient winds from the south and southwest set the stage for microbursts occurring with even weak rain showers. Temperature-dew point spreads were around 60 degrees during the afternoon.
