At 2120z SFX radar depcited a potentially severe thunderstorm located SW of Pocatello. At this time, nearly 50 dBZ returns were observed in excess of 35kft. The -20C level was approximately 17kft. The MESH readout in ProbSevere showed 1.59". However, ProbHail was only 55%. This appears to be a case where the ProbHail algorithm was reducing the probability based on the environment despite several aspects that support issuing in warning for severe hail. A warning was issued for this storm at 2101z.
