MD 0992 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 320... FOR FAR SOUTHEAST MO...FAR SOUTHERN IL...WESTERN/CENTRAL KY...FAR SOUTHWEST IN
Mesoscale Discussion 0992 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0618 PM CDT Sun May 26 2024 Areas affected...Far Southeast MO...Far Southern IL...Western/Central KY...Far Southwest IN Concerning...Tornado Watch 320... Valid 262318Z - 270045Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 320 continues. SUMMARY...Open warm sector initiation appears to be underway from far southeast Missouri across far southern Illinois into western/central Kentucky and southern Indiana. Supercells capable of all severe hazards, including strong tornadoes, are possible. Southern IN and western/central KY will likely need an additional Tornado Watch soon. DISCUSSION...Recent visible satellite has shown increasingly deep cumulus within the warm sector well ahead of the main cold front from far southwest MO across southern IL into southwest KY and far southwest IN. Some radar returns have been recently noted with this activity as well, giving increasing confidence that at least isolated convective initiation may be realized shortly. A belt of stronger mid-level flow extends across much of this region, resulting in notable low-level veering within the VAD profiles at PAH and HPX. Ample low-level moisture and strong buoyancy exists across the region as well. Mesoanalysis estimates STP is currently from 3 to 5, with this high values expected to persist and expand northeastward with time. The result is an environment that is favorable for supercells capable of all severe hazards, including strong tornadoes. Very large hail up to 2.5" in diameter is possible as well. Some of this area is within the Tornado Watch 230, but those areas to its east including far southern IN and western KY will likely need an additional Tornado Watch soon. ..Mosier/Smith.. 05/26/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

MD 0993 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 317...318...321... FOR EASTERN OH...WESTERN PA...WESTERN MD...EASTERN WV...CENTRAL VA
Mesoscale Discussion 0993 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0622 PM CDT Sun May 26 2024 Areas affected...Eastern OH...western PA...western MD...eastern WV...central VA Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 317...318...321... Valid 262322Z - 270045Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 317, 318, 321 continues. SUMMARY...Some damaging-wind potential will spread northeastward through the evening. DISCUSSION...A loosely organized QLCS with a history of producing some wind damage is moving across eastern OH/western PA into parts of eastern WV/central VA. While midlevel lapse rates are weak and instability gradually decreases with eastward extent, earlier diurnal heating resulted in some steepening of low-level lapse rates, and MLCAPE may remain around 500 J/kg in advance of the line this evening, though with gradually increasing MLCINH. The QLCS will likely continue to remain somewhat organized until decreasing instability and increasing inhibition becomes prohibitive later this evening. Rather strong low-level flow (noted on regional VWPs) will continue to support some wind-damage potential with this QLCS as it advances northeastward. Some threat may eventually spread out of WW 318 and WW 321 into central PA, western MD, and northern/central VA, though the need for additional watch issuance remains uncertain. ..Dean/Smith.. 05/26/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
