    Areas affected...portions of northeastern MO...southeastern IA and
    northwestern IL

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 312322Z - 010045Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...A few clusters of strong to severe storms will be possible
    along and east of a slow moving cold front later this evening.
    Damaging wind gusts and isolated hail appear to be the primary
    threats. It remains unclear if a watch will be needed.

    DISCUSSION...As of 2320Z, late afternoon visible imagery showed some enchantment to cumulus towers/weak thunderstorms along a slow moving
    cold front from far northeastern MO into portions of southeastern
    IA. Regional surface observations ahead of the developing convection
    show a warm and moist airmass with surface TDs in the upper 60s to
    low 70s F. Overlying the surface moisture, moderately steep
    mid-level lapse rates near 7.5 C/km were supporting around 2000 J/kg
    of MLCAPE. Lingering mid-level flow is also aiding in 30-40 kt of
    effective shear suggesting some storm organization is possible.
    Within the favorable parameter space, if convection is able to be
    maintained, more organized multi-cell clusters and perhaps some
    transient supercell structures capable of damaging wind gusts and
    isolated hail will be possible. It remains unclear if and how many
    organized severe storms may develop owing to weak forcing for ascent
    and lingering cloud cover. Conditions will be monitored for the
    possibility of a weather watch should storms continue to develop and
    organize.

    Mesoscale Discussion 0993

    1130 AM CDT Mon Jun 12 2023

    Areas affected...Portions of far southeast New York...eastern Pennsylvania...New Jersey...Delaware...eastern Maryland...far
    eastern Virginia

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 121630Z - 121730Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...The severe threat will gradually increase across portions
    of the Mid Atlantic this afternoon. Damaging gusts are the main
    concern, though an instance or two of large hail and perhaps a brief
    tornado cannot be ruled out. A Severe Thunderstorm Watch issuance is
    possible.

    DISCUSSION...A corridor of insolation ahead of a broad stratiform
    rain band (associated with an upper trough) has supported surface
    temperatures rising into the upper 70s/lower 80s F, with upper 60s F
    dewpoints contributing to 1000-2000 J/kg of thin MLCAPE (given poor
    mid-level lapse rates). While increasing deep-layer ascent atop the
    mixing boundary layer will support an increase in convective
    coverage, deep-layer shear is expected to remain modest, with
    slightly curved/elongated hodographs supporting multicellular
    development amid 30 kts of effective bulk shear. With low-level
    lapse rates steepening to over 7 C/km, damaging gusts appear to be
    the main threat with the stronger storms. Given the modest hodograph
    curvature, an instance or two of marginally severe hail is possible
    and a tornado cannot be completely ruled out. Conditions will
    continue to be monitored for corridors of locally stronger surface
    heating, which may support enough coverage of damaging-gust
    producing storms to warrant a Severe Thunderstorm Watch issuance.
