Areas affected...Portions of the Mid-Atlantic

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

Valid 011853Z - 012100Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

SUMMARY...Developing thunderstorms may pose an isolated damaging
wind threat this afternoon and early evening. Limited environmental
wind shear will modulate the overall severe threat and preclude the
need for a watch.

DISCUSSION...Convection has been slow to mature across the
Mid-Atlantic region over the past few hours - largely due to modest
(around 5.5 C/km) mid-level lapse rates and shallow EL levels.
Nonetheless, continued daytime heating has been promoting gradual destabilization and a slow uptick in convective intensity based on
recent GOES IR imagery and lightning trends over the past 30 minutes
or so. Continued daytime heating may act to mix out the seasonally
marginal low-level moisture downstream of developing convection,
which should limit MLCAPE to around 1000 J/kg. However, this will
maximize boundary-layer mixing/depth and support steep low-level
lapse rates favorable for downdraft acceleration. Weak flow over the
region will generally limit storm longevity and organization, but
sporadic damaging winds (generally between 40-60 mph) appear
possible given the thermodynamic environment.
