Areas affected...Lower Hudson Valley into northwest Connecticut and
western Massachusetts

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 84...

Valid 010056Z - 010230Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 84
continues.

SUMMARY...A few strong to locally severe thunderstorms will spread
across the lower Hudson Valley into northwest CT and western MA over
the next few hours. Gusty winds are the primary concern.

DISCUSSION...Weak buoyancy has yet to be overturned across the lower
Hudson Valley into western portions of southern New England where
surface temperatures are holding in the lower 70s. Leading edge of
long-lived complex of storms is spreading across this region but
this activity appears to be slowly weakening as it advances
downstream. Latest surface analysis depicts a sharp front is draped
across RI into central MA where easterly low-level flow is
maintaining surface temperatures in the 40s. Current thinking is a
narrow corridor exists for robust convection over the next few hours
and this activity will pose mostly a gusty wind risk.
