Since about 4:15 PM CDT, forecasters have been analyzing data in the Cheyenne CWA, while NSSL scientists provide more in-depth explanation of the various MRMS products.  One team has already issued a severe thunderstorm warning for hail.  We suspect the event will peak later this evening, however, once the forecasters are fully familiar with the MRMS tools available to them, and when storms move into the North Platte, NE, area.
