CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 312...
VALID 111948Z - 112145Z
THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 312
CONTINUES.
SUMMARY...THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT CONTINUES ACROSS WW312,
PRIMARILY ACROSS PORTIONS OF SOUTHWESTERN PENNSYLVANIA AHEAD OF A
MORE ORGANIZED CONVECTIVE LINE.
DISCUSSION...SEVERAL THUNDERSTORM COMPLEXES HAVE DEVELOPED ACROSS
WESTERN NY AND PA, EASTERN OH, AND NORTHERN WV. SOME DAMAGING WIND
REPORTS HAVE OCCURRED AS A RESULT, PARTICULARLY WITH THE CONVECTIVE
LINE IN SOUTHWESTERN PA. KPBZ SAMPLED AROUND 50 KTS AROUND 700 FT
ARL AS THE LINE PASSED AT 1900Z. ALTHOUGH BULK SHEAR WILL REMAIN ON
THE MODEST SIDE (AROUND 20 KTS), IT SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT TO MAINTAIN
MORE ORGANIZED THUNDERSTORM COMPLEXES AS THEY MOVE EASTWARD INTO A
REGION OF MLCAPE AROUND 2000+ J/KG. THE GREATEST SHORT-TERM THREAT
FOR SEVERE WIND GUSTS WILL BE IN SOUTHWESTERN PA AHEAD OF THE
ORGANIZED CONVECTIVE LINE.
STRONG THUNDERSTORMS HAVE ALSO FORMED IN WESTERN NY ALONG THE
NORTHERN PERIPHERY OF THE UNSTABLE AIRMASS. HERE, BULK SHEAR IS
SLIGHTLY MORE SUPPORTIVE OF DISCRETE ROTATING UPDRAFTS (AS EVIDENCED
BY SOME LOW-LEVEL ROTATION IN THE CELLS EAST OF BUFFALO, NY AS OF
1945Z) BUT BUOYANCY IS MORE LIMITED. A LOCAL WIND AND SMALL HAIL
THREAT COULD PERSIST HERE WITH ANY SUSTAINED STORM.
ADDITIONAL CONVECTION IN THE WESTERN PORTIONS OF WW312 MAY ALSO POSE
A SHORT-TERM SEVERE THREAT, BUT SHOULD BE TEMPERED BY COLD OUTFLOW
(10-15 F DEFICITS) IN THE WAKE OF THE LEADING CONVECTION.
