    Areas affected...Parts of eastern VA and MD

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

    Valid 101701Z - 102030Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Scattered thunderstorms will spread eastward across the
    Mid-Atlantic region through the afternoon. Strong to marginally
    severe gusts will be possible with the stronger storms. A watch is
    not expected.

    DISCUSSION...Isolated convective development is underway along the
    higher terrain in western VA this afternoon, primarily driven by
    diurnal heating/mixing of a moist boundary layer amid minimal
    convective inhibition. Ahead of this activity, visible satellite
    imagery shows mostly clear skies and efficient diurnal heating along
    and south of a quasi-stationary surface front draped from southern
    NJ westward along the MD/PA border. While midlevel lapse rates are
    poor across the warm sector, lower/middle 90s surface temperatures
    amid lower/middle 70s dewpoints are contributing to a strongly
    unstable airmass.=20

    Generally weak deep-layer flow/shear will limit overall convective
    organization as it spreads eastward through the afternoon, though
    15-20 kt west-southwesterly flow in the 2-4-km layer and deep
    tropospheric moisture (1.9-2.0 PW per GOES-16 derived PW) should
    support water-loaded downdrafts with strong to marginally severe
    gusts of 40-60 mph in the strongest cores. This will especially be
    the case where any localized clustering of storms occur. Given the
    weak large-scale ascent and limited vertical wind shear/anticipated
    convective organization, a watch is not expected.

    Areas affected...Eastern NY into parts of New England

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 534...

    Valid 212048Z - 212245Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 534
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Some threat for isolated damaging wind and hail will
    continue late this afternoon into part of the evening.

    DISCUSSION...Scattered thunderstorms are ongoing this afternoon
    across parts of CT and western MA into VT and southern NH, in and
    near WW 534. However, storms have generally struggled to intensify
    thus far, despite the presence of moderate buoyancy and marginally
    favorable deep-layer shear. Weak midlevel lapse rates have likely
    limited updraft intensity, but a few storms have recently
    strengthened across parts of MA/VT into southern NH. Marginal
    supercell structures will remain possible into early evening, with a
    threat of isolated damaging wind and hail, and possibly a brief
    tornado. A somewhat greater damaging-wind threat could evolve if
    some modestly organized upscale growth occurs, but this scenario is
    more uncertain.=20

    Additional storms may move into the region from eastern New York, as
    the primary cold front approaches. Depending on the extent of
    remaining instability in the wake of earlier convection, these later
    storms could also pose an isolated severe threat into at least part
    of the evening.
