URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 632 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 445 PM EDT Sat Aug 17 2024 The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of Northeast Alabama Northern Georgia Western North Carolina Western South Carolina * Effective this Saturday afternoon and evening from 445 PM until 1000 PM EDT. * Primary threats include... Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph possible Isolated large hail events to 1.5 inches in diameter possible SUMMARY...A cluster of thunderstorms will spread eastward across the watch area through the afternoon, posing a risk of locally damaging wind gusts and hail.

MD 1936 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 631... FOR PORTIONS OF NORTHERN CALIFORNIA INTO WESTERN OREGON
Mesoscale Discussion 1936 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0518 PM CDT Sat Aug 17 2024 Areas affected...portions of northern California into western Oregon Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 631... Valid 172218Z - 172345Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 631 continues. SUMMARY...The severe threat continues across Severe Thunderstorm Watch 631. Damaging gusts and hail remain the primary concerns. DISCUSSION...Multiple rounds of strong, sustained thunderstorms continue to track north-northwestward in tandem with the stronger mid-level flow. The first round of thunderstorms in OR are comprised of a mix of multicells and transient supercells, likely producing at least small hail (per MRMS mosaic radar data). 6.5-7 C/km tropospheric lapse rates atop low 60s F dewpoints are contributing to over 500 J/kg MLCAPE, which may support a continued risk for strong wind gusts and hail. Farther south into northern CA, a 500 mb speed max is overspreading the area (per 22Z mesoanalysis), supporting locally stronger wind shear and the northward advection of steep mid-level lapse rates. Small but sustained supercell structures have become established in this area, likely accompanied by a hail threat. Steep low-level lapse rates and terrain influences are contributing to overlapping 100+ J/kg 0-3 km CAPE and low-level vertical vorticity, which are also fostering supercell potential. However, 20-30 F T/Td spreads are common across northern CA, indicative of a well-mixed boundary layer supporting strong wind gusts, though a landspout can't be completely ruled out. ..Squitieri.. 08/17/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

MD 1935 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE FOR SOUTHEAST KY AND EXTREME WESTERN VA
Mesoscale Discussion 1935 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0457 PM CDT Sat Aug 17 2024 Areas affected...Southeast KY and extreme western VA Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible Valid 172157Z - 172330Z Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent SUMMARY...Damaging-wind threat will persist across southeast Kentucky and far western Virginia through 00-01z. DISCUSSION...A band of thunderstorms is spreading southeastward across eastern KY on an aggregate convective outflow, in association with the southern extent of a midlevel shortwave trough. Surface temperatures remain in the mid-upper 80s to the south of the ongoing storms, where MLCAPE is near 2000 J/kg. The combination of the moderate-strong buoyancy and lingering/steep low-level lapse rates, along with 30-40 kt midlevel flow per regional VWPs, will support a continued threat for occasional wind damage with embedded downbursts. Gradual cooling of the boundary layer will result in a slow decrease in the severe threat near and after sunset. ..Thompson/Guyer.. 08/17/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

MD 1934 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 630... FOR FAR NORTHERN ARIZONA INTO NORTH-CENTRAL UTAH
Mesoscale Discussion 1934 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0401 PM CDT Sat Aug 17 2024 Areas affected...far northern Arizona into north-central Utah Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 630... Valid 172101Z - 172230Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 630 continues. SUMMARY...Strong to severe storms with primarily a severe wind threat will persist this afternoon and evening across northern Arizona and much of Utah. DISCUSSION...Widespread convective activity with occasional severe wind gusts has occurred across Utah thus far this afternoon. This widespread coverage has limited destabilization and thus a greater/more focused severe weather threat. However, destabilization continues on the southwestern periphery and continued height falls ahead of the approaching western CONUS trough should lead to additional development through the afternoon/evening. Expect this isolated to scattered severe weather threat to persist through sunset before weakening with diurnal stabilization. ..Bentley/Hart.. 08/17/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
