    Areas affected...Middle Ohio River Valley

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 508...509...

    Valid 012251Z - 020045Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 508, 509
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The potential for severe wind/hail, and perhaps a
    brief/weak tornado continues for the middle OH River Valley. A more
    isolated risk of severe wind/hail may persist across parts of the
    upper OH River Valley into the central Appalachians.

    DISCUSSION...Convection continues to intensify along a stationary
    boundary along the middle OH River Valley. A more robust supercell
    cluster across southeast IL has produced several instances of severe
    hail over the past hour, including a 2-inch hail report. This
    cell/cluster has begun to take on more outflow-dominant
    characteristics (base on KVWS imagery), and may see an increasing
    severe wind potential over the next 1-2 hours across the IL/KY/IN
    tri-state region.=20

    To the east into southern IN/OH, shallower supercells continue to
    intensify with increasing lightning counts and cooling cloud-top
    temperatures. Modest ambient low-level helicity along the boundary
    has allowed for these cells to quickly take on some supercell
    characteristics with mid-level rotation. Latest environmental
    estimates continue to show this region has the highest tornado
    potential with ESRH estimates near 150-200 m2/s2. However, deep
    layer flow and storm motions along the boundary will likely favor a
    gradual increase in storm interactions that will act to limit the
    tornado potential (though a hail/wind threat will likely persist).=20

    Across WV into PA, an elongated cluster of thunderstorms has
    maintained intensity despite moving into a more limited
    thermodynamic environment. This is likely due to favorable
    deep-layer shear (near 40 knots) that is compensating for the meager instability. A gradual weakening trend is likely with this activity
    heading into the late evening hours, but a localized severe
    wind/hail risk main persist for the next hour or so.

    Mesoscale Discussion 1627
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    1040 AM CDT Wed Jul 19 2023

    Areas affected...East/northeast North Carolina and far southeast
    Virginia.

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

    Valid 191540Z - 191715Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...The severe weather threat will increase through early
    afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...A thunderstorm cluster near the center of a MCV has
    gradually increased in intensity across central North Carolina over
    the last hour. Downstream, temperatures have warmed into the low to
    mid 80s with mid to upper 70s dewpoints. This has yielded 1500 to
    2000 J/kg MLCAPE with most inhibition eroded. Some additional
    heating is likely which could lead to further destabilization. This
    will result in strengthening of ongoing convection and the potential
    for additional thunderstorms to develop in the vicinity of the MCV.=20


    The KRAX VWP shows 55 to 60 knots of flow around 4km which far
    exceeds any forecast guidance. This strong low-mid level flow should
    provide ample shear for organized convection and rotating updrafts.
    Large hail and damaging wind gusts will be the primary threat. A
    slight risk will be added in this region at the 1630Z Day 1
    Convective Outlook and a watch may be needed by early afternoon.
