    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 564...

    Valid 111518Z - 111715Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 564
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The threat for damaging winds is expected to continue
    across the watch area this morning. Additional storm development is
    possible along a composite outflow boundary from northeast Kentucky
    into western Virginia by early afternoon, possibly requiring an
    additional watch issuance.

    DISCUSSION...A mature MCS with embedded bowing structure is ongoing
    as of 1510Z across portions of central and southern OH with a wind
    gust to 82 mph reported within the past hour at the Columbus John
    Glenn International Airport. While that portion of the MCS is
    currently the most intense, considerable downstream convection
    present from southeast OH into northwest WV leads to uncertainty in
    the longevity of the damaging wind threat given the convectively
    overturned air mass.

    Potentially greater air mass destabilization is expected by early
    afternoon farther southwest from northeast KY into western portions
    of WV and VA, in the vicinity of a composite outflow boundary.
    There, storm intensification on the western flank of the OH MCS
    appears possible, along with additional in situ development along
    the boundary. While the region will reside on the southern fringe of
    stronger vertical shear, the presence of moderate to strong
    instability with steepening low-level lapse rates will support
    damaging wind potential with the strongest storms.
