    Valid 041444Z - 041645Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...One or two developing bands of showers and thunderstorms
    may pose increasing potential for sporadic wind damage through early
    afternoon. This currently seems unlikely to require a severe
    weather watch, but trends will be monitored.

    DISCUSSION...Boundary layer warming associated with insolation is
    beginning to contribute to destabilization in a pre-frontal
    corridor, where the latest Rapid Refresh suggests that mid-level
    forcing for ascent, associated with a short wave perturbation
    pivoting through the lower Great Lakes region, may contribute to
    deepening convective development through 16-18Z. Based on forecast
    soundings, although mid/upper lapse rates are likely to remain weak,
    sufficient boundary warming may occur for destabilization through
    favorably cold levels of the mixed-phase layer to support charge
    separation and increasing potential for scattered thunderstorm development.=20=20

    It is possible that this activity could gradually consolidate into
    an increasingly prominent line, which will tend to propagate ahead
    of the eastward advancing cold front. Although this may maintain a
    significant component parallel to the 30-40 kt south-southwesterly cloud-bearing layer mean flow, the deepening preceding well-mixed boundary-layer may gradually become increasingly conducive to
    downward momentum transfer to the surface. Peak gusts probably will
    tend to remain mostly below severe limits, but sporadic wind damage, particularly to trees, is possible.
