    Areas affected...portions of the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 121748Z - 121945Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Widely scattered thunderstorms and a risk of occasional
    damaging wind gusts are expected across portions of the Mid-Atlantic
    and Northeast this afternoon/evening.

    DISCUSSION...Latest regional radar imagery depicts ongoing
    thunderstorm development across portions of the Mid-Atlantic and
    Northeast along a surface cold front and prefrontal trough. This
    activity is occurring as weak mid-level height falls begin to
    overspread the region ahead of a mid-level shortwave trough
    progressing across the Great Lakes region. While mid-level lapse
    rates will remain weak, strong surface heating and dewpoints around
    70 F will support 1000 to locally 2000+ J/kg MLCAPE by peak heating
    this afternoon as convection evolves eastward. While stronger
    deep-layer flow will remain displaced to the north, modest mid-level
    westerlies of 25-35 kts and steepening low-level lapse rates will
    promote the potential for multicell clusters capable of occasional
    damaging wind gusts. Currently, the greatest potential appears
    likely to manifest across southeastern New York and adjacent areas
    where the best overlap of modestly stronger mid-level flow and
    greater buoyancy may develop.

    A Severe Thunderstorm Watch may be needed for portions of the
    discussion area within the next 1-2 hours to cover these threats.
    More uncertainty exists regarding watch issuance farther south into southeastern Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey where latest
    guidance indicates a relative minimum in convective coverage could
    occur.
