NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1203 PM CDT SAT JUN 06 2026
AREAS AFFECTED...WESTERN/CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA...NORTHERN/WESTERN
MARYLAND
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH LIKELY
VALID 061703Z - 061830Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...80 PERCENT
SUMMARY...THUNDERSTORMS WITH POTENTIAL FOR DAMAGING WINDS WILL
INCREASE IN COVERAGE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.
DISCUSSION...A CLUSTER OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUES EASTWARD
THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS OHIO, PRODUCING GUSTS AS HIGH AS 66 MPH.
FURTHER TO THE NORTHEAST, ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS ARE DEVELOPING
ACROSS PORTIONS OF WESTERN PA INTO SOUTHWESTERN NY. AHEAD OF THIS
ACTIVITY, FILTERED HEATING HAS ALLOWED TEMPERATURES TO CLIMB INTO
THE 80S WITH GRADUAL EASTWARD EXPANSION OF AROUND 500 J/KG OF
MLCAPE. AS FURTHER HEATING OCCURS, GUIDANCE SUGGESTS AROUND
1000-1500 J/KG MLCAPE WILL BE IN PLACE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON WITH
STRENGTHENING MID-LEVEL FLOW ALOFT OVERSPREADING THE REGION AND
STEEPENING LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES. THIS WILL PROMOTE FURTHER
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT AND POTENTIAL FOR DOWNWARD MIXING OF HIGHER
MOMENTUM AIR AND DAMAGING WIND POTENTIAL. A WATCH WILL BE NEEDED TO
COVER THIS POTENTIAL SOON.
