WW 497 SEVERE TSTM DC MD NC PA VA WV CW 091800Z - 100200Z
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 497
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
200 PM EDT Wed Jul 9 2025
The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
* Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of
District Of Columbia
Maryland
Far Northwestern North Carolina
South-Central Pennsylvania
Northern, Western, and Central Virginia
Eastern West Virginia
Coastal Waters
* Effective this Wednesday afternoon and evening from 200 PM
until 1000 PM EDT.
* Primary threats include...
Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph likely
Isolated large hail events to 1 inch in diameter possible
SUMMARY...Thunderstorm coverage is expected to increase across the
region this afternoon, with multiple rounds of storms possible.
Moderate buoyancy and vertical shear is expected to support bowing
line segments capable of damaging wind gusts. A few instances of
hail are possible as well, particularly over regions of higher
terrain.
The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 95
statute miles east and west of a line from 5 miles west northwest of
Hagerstown MD to 60 miles south southwest of Dublin VA. For a
complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline
update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU7).
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area.
Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening
weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible
warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce
tornadoes.
&&
AVIATION...A few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to
1 inch. Extreme turbulence and surface wind gusts to 60 knots. A few
cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 500. Mean storm motion vector
27035.

MD 1621 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 498... FOR SOUTH-CENTRAL ND...CENTRAL SD...AND NORTH-CENTRAL NE
Mesoscale Discussion 1621
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0630 PM CDT Wed Jul 09 2025
Areas affected...South-central ND...central SD...and north-central
NE
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 498...
Valid 092330Z - 100100Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 498
continues.
SUMMARY...Isolated/sporadic large hail and embedded severe wind
gusts remain possible across Severe Thunderstorm Watch 498. While
uncertain, there is some potential for eventual upscale growth into
one or more clusters into tonight.
DISCUSSION...Two disorganized clusters with transient/embedded
deeper cores are drifting slowly east-southeastward across the
Dakotas and northern NE this evening -- where periodic severe wind
gusts and large hail are occurring. Weak large-scale forcing for
ascent and strong buoyancy/steep deep-layer lapse rates have
generally promoted outflow dominant storms with limited large-scale
organization up to this point. Nevertheless, the strong buoyancy and
long/generally straight hodographs (around 40 kt of effective shear)
will continue to promote severe downbursts/outflow and sporadic
large hail with the stronger embedded cores.
While the weak forcing for ascent casts uncertainty on overall
convective evolution, a gradually strengthening low-level jet may
promote eventual upscale growth into one or more organized clusters
into tonight. Confidence in this scenario is relatively higher for
the southern area of storms currently over southern SD into northern
NE -- as the low-level jet may tend to focus over this general
region amid slightly stronger deep-layer shear. If this evolution
can occur, the risk of severe wind gusts would increase with time,
and a downstream watch would eventually be needed.

URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 498
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
145 PM MDT Wed Jul 9 2025
The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a
* Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of
South-Central North Dakota
Northwest into North-Central Nebraska
Western and Central South Dakota
* Effective this Wednesday afternoon and evening from 145 PM
until 900 PM MDT.
* Primary threats include...
Scattered damaging winds and isolated significant gusts to 80
mph likely
Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 2
inches in diameter possible
A tornado or two possible
SUMMARY...Thunderstorm development is anticipated over the next few
hours from the western Dakotas down into the Nebraska Panhandle. A
few discrete supercells are possible within this region before
evolving towards a more linear mode with time. One or more
convective lines could then move eastward into more of the central
Dakotas and north-central Nebraska, with strong to severe gusts as
the primary risk. Some gusts over 75 mph are possible.
The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 85
statute miles east and west of a line from 30 miles northwest of
Bismarck ND to 40 miles southwest of Mullen NE. For a complete
depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update
(WOUS64 KWNS WOU8).
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area.
Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening
weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible
warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce
tornadoes.

MD 1620 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 497... FOR PORTIONS OF MARYLAND...DELAWARE...PENNSYLVANIA...AND NEW JERSEY
Mesoscale Discussion 1620
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0343 PM CDT Wed Jul 09 2025
Areas affected...Portions of
Maryland...Delaware...Pennsylvania...and New Jersey
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 497...
Valid 092043Z - 092245Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 497
continues.
SUMMARY...Convective trends are being monitored for the need for
downstream watch issuance across parts of Maryland, Delaware,
Pennsylvania, and New Jersey as storms spread east through early
evening.
DISCUSSION...Regional radar mosaics continue to show a slow, but
steady, increase in convective coverage across southern PA and parts
of northern MD as lift associated with a mid-level impulse continues
to migrate east and overspreads a moderately buoyant air mass.
Regional VWPs continue to sample 30-40 knot mid-level flow
associated with the upper feature, but the nebulous forcing for
ascent and modest mid-level lapse rates appear to be modulating
convective intensity and longevity of more discrete cells across
PA/MD. While the convective parameter space is supportive of
organized/severe convection, it remains unclear how intense
convection will become over the next few hours.
Further south into eastern MD and DE, confidence is higher in a
severe wind threat later this evening. A squall line is slowly
organizing across central VA and is expected to continue
intensifying over the next few hours (see recently issued MCD #1619
for additional details). Recent surface observations and MLCAPE
analyses show a plume of rich low-level moisture/buoyancy extending
into southern DE/southeast MD, which should maintain the convective
line as it spreads east into the evening hours. Slow storm motions
cast some uncertainty on exactly when a downstream watch will be
needed, but recent high-res guidance suggest a damaging wind threat
will begin to materialize between 23-01 UTC.

0441 PM CDT Wed Jul 09 2025
Valid 111200Z - 171200Z
...Days 3-4/Friday-Saturday...
A building mid-level ridge across the Western U.S. will promote
lighter winds overall but steadily increasing temperatures across
the region through the weekend. Farther east, a mid-level trough
moving through the northern High Plains Days 3-4/Friday-Saturday
will usher in cooler, post-frontal flow into much Northern/Central
Plains through the weekend while also bringing scattered
showers/thunderstorms to the central and southern High Plains, with
wetting rains remaining along and east of the Continental Divide.
...Days 5-6/Sunday-Monday...
Another mid-level trough translating southeastward from British
Columbia into the Northern Tier states could bring a thunderstorm
threat to portions of the Northern Rockies and MT High Plains Day
5/Monday but a deeper moisture plume could limit dry thunderstorm
potential. Higher confidence exists for dry and breezy conditions
across the Columbia River Basin on Sunday as stronger mid-level flow
promotes dry, downslope winds into the basin, as well as accelerated
valley winds across the Snake River Plain amid dry fuels and low RH
on Monday.
...Day 7-8/Tuesday-Wednesday...
A West Coast thermal trough will promote well above normal
temperatures and low relative humidity across the coastal ranges of
northern CA, OR and WA but winds appear to remain light from latest
model guidance consensus. Additionally, confidence remains low of a
return of deeper monsoon moisture into the Southwest around midweek,
precluding introduction dry thunderstorm probabilities at this time.
