    Areas affected...Central Alabama

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 101...

    Valid 070041Z - 070245Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 101
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Despite the onset of diurnal cooling, the potential for
    isolated severe hail and damaging winds will continue for at least
    the next 1-2 hours as storms continue to develop along the cold
    front.

    DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms developing along the cold front in AL
    continue to show periods of re-invigoration in IR imagery and
    lightning trends. This may be attributable to improving ascent
    associated with the approach of a mid-level trough/cold front that
    is noted in water-vapor imagery and 700 mb analyses. This should
    continue to promote sufficiently deep lift along the front to
    support continued convection. However, surface observations within
    the warm sector ahead of the front show the early onset of diurnal
    cooling. Latest RAP analyses reflect this trend with a gradual
    decrease in MLCAPE and increase in inhibition. Lift along the
    frontal boundary will likely remain deep enough to counteract
    degrading buoyancy rooted near the surface, but this trend will
    gradually diminish the severe potential heading into the late
    evening hours and instability wanes. In the near term, however,
    periodic storm intensification to severe limits remains possible,
    maintaining the hail/damaging wind risk through at least 02 UTC.

    0518 PM CDT Sat Apr 01 2023

    Areas affected...Eastern Connecticut...Massachusetts...Rhode
    Island...and southern New Hampshire

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 012218Z - 012315Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Localized damaging wind threat may persist. A downstream
    Severe Thunderstorm Watch is unlikely.

    DISCUSSION...A line of storms currently moving across New York and
    Pennsylvania has shown signs of weakening over the last hour. These
    storms are moving into a more favorable environment across the East
    Coast, where daytime heating has allowed for SBCAPE around 500 J/kg.
    Mid-level cooling will continue to allow further destabilization
    over the next couple of hours as the trough approaches from the
    west. VAD profiles from Albany (KENX) show deep layer shear around
    25-30 kts. As storms move into this environment slight
    intensification will be possible, along with additional development
    ahead of the main line. Given the wind profiles, a marginal damaging
    wind risk is possible. A Severe Thunderstorm Watch is unlikely.

    Areas affected...portions of extreme northern California into
    central Oregon

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 132025Z - 132300Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms are expected to gradually increase in both
    coverage and intensity through the afternoon. Hail and strong wind
    gusts will be the main threats, though a brief tornado cannot be
    completely ruled out. The severe threat should remain isolated and a
    WW issuance is not expected.

    DISCUSSION...Despite limited surface heating, increasing deep-layer
    ascent, driven by the approach of a mid-level jet streak, is
    contributing to a gradual increase in thunderstorm coverage across
    parts of southern OR/northern CA. Temperatures are warming into the
    mid 50s F, with dewpoints near 40 F in place, supporting around 1000
    J/kg SBCAPE, but under 500 J/kg of MLCAPE. Given widespread clouds
    in place, the boundary layer remains moist, but also cool, with the aforementioned CAPE constrained to short and narrow profiles (per
    19Z RAP forecast soundings) despite steep tropospheric lapse rates
    in place. Shear profiles favor some severe potential, with forecast
    soundings showing curved and elongated hodographs, with up to 50 kts
    of effective bulk shear in place. As such, multicells and supercells
    should be the primary mode of convection, with gusty winds and hail
    the main threats.=20

    A brief tornado also cannot be ruled out, especially to the
    immediate lee of the southern Cascades, where 20Z mesoanalysis
    depicts a local maxima in low-level vertical vorticity coinciding
    with over 100 J/kg of 0-3 km CAPE. Any supercell that manages to
    develop and traverse this local corridor may stretch the vorticity
    and spawn a brief landspout/supercell hybrid tornado, though this
    scenario remains highly conditional. Furthermore, the overall severe
    threat is expected to remain isolated and a WW issuance is not
    anticipated.
