    Areas affected...Parts of the Mid-Atlantic

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 87...89...

    Valid 010143Z - 010315Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 87, 89
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The threat for isolated damaging winds will persist
    through about 03z, and then diminish by 04z.

    DISCUSSION...A pre-frontal band of convection, with some embedded
    bowing segments, will likely persist for another 1-2 hours across NJ
    and vicinity, before diminishing near the expiration time of watch
    89 at 04z. Despite the loss of insolation, low-level moisture
    advection from the south will support modest increases in buoyancy
    as low 60s dewpoints spread northward across NJ. The
    moistening/weak destabilization will occur in a strongly sheared
    environment per local VWPs, with largely line-parallel shear of
    40-50 kt in the lowest km above ground level. This convection
    appears to be coincident with a lead mid-upper speed max, and
    low-level flow is expected to veer in the next 2 hours and weaken
    with passage of this speed max aloft. In the interim, isolated
    damaging gusts will still be possible given the high-momentum (50-60
    kt) southwesterly low-level flow and modest downdraft potential
    along the line (a little increase in DCAPE this evening).

    Farther west, a few storms have recently intensified near the
    synoptic cold front and in association with the speed max aloft,
    near the south central PA border. Some weak destabilization in the
    wake of the pre-frontal band could support a localized wind threat
    for 1-2 hours from south central into southeast PA.

    Areas affected...Northern Pennsylvania and New York

    Concerning...Snow Squall=20

    Valid 292105Z - 300100Z

    SUMMARY...Snow squalls will be possible through the evening hours
    across northern Pennsylvania and central/western New York as a cold
    front pushes across the region.

    DISCUSSION...A cold front tracking eastward across the lower Great
    Lakes region is beginning to move into portions of OH, PA, and
    western NY. While temperatures ahead of this front remain the upper
    40s and low 50s, surface observations behind the front show
    temperatures quickly falling into the low 30s with moderate to heavy
    snow, visibility reductions between 1/2 to 1/4 mile, and strong wind
    gusts between 35-45 mph. Strong pressure rises behind the front are
    also noted west of the Buffalo, NY region, suggesting that the
    strongest frontal surge will occur across the western NY area for
    the next several hours. Snow squall conditions are expected to
    persist immediately behind this front as it continues east across
    northern PA and much of NY through the evening hours, and may extend
    as far east as the New England region during the overnight hours.

    Areas affected...parts of the mid/upper Texas coastal plain and
    adjacent western Louisiana

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

    Valid 081526Z - 081800Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Widely scattered strong thunderstorms may begin to form
    across and inland of mid/upper Texas and southwest Louisiana coastal
    areas by early afternoon. This may be accompanied by at least some
    risk for severe hail, and perhaps a tornado, before storms increase
    and intensify with a more notable increase in severe weather
    potential later this afternoon, as activity spreads toward
    central/northern Texas.

    DISCUSSION...An initial influx of low-level moisture, which
    accompanied a significant cyclone now weakening over the Upper
    Midwest vicinity, lingers along and south of a stalling/weakening
    boundary now extending across the lower Mississippi Valley into
    southeastern Texas. This includes surface dew points ranging from
    the lower 70s across the northwestern Gulf into immediate Texas Gulf
    coastal areas, and upper 60s F further inland across the coastal
    plain, which will begin to advect northwestward and northward
    through the day, downstream of a significant short wave trough
    turning eastward across the Southwest.

    Beneath the northeastern periphery of a plume of elevated
    mixed-layer air advecting across the lower Rio Grande Valley, this
    moisture already appears to be contributing to sizable CAPE on the
    order of 2000 J/kg. This probably will increase at least a bit
    further through the day, as thin spots and breaks in the overcast
    allow for some insolation.

    At the same time, models indicate strengthening of southwesterly
    flow into mid-levels (30-50+ kts in the 700-500 mb layer), beneath a
    strong upper jet emanating from the subtropical eastern Pacific, and
    by early afternoon the environment will become increasingly
    conducive to potential for supercells. Various model output
    suggests that at least widely scattered thunderstorms may begin to
    form across and inland of coastal areas by around 17-18Z, before
    gradually intensifying and increasing further within northwestward
    and northward spreading large-scale ascent aided by low-level warm
    advection.

    While it is possible that it may take a couple of hours for a more
    substantive increase in severe weather potential to develop, as
    storms acquire better inflow of more unstable near-surface air,
    initial storms may pose at least some risk for severe hail. The
    risk for a brief tornado may also not be completely negligible,
    though clockwise curved low-level hodographs will initially be weak.
