Areas affected...portions of Indiana

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 91...

Valid 030021Z - 030145Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 91
continues.

SUMMARY...Ongoing thunderstorms will continue to pose a risk for
isolated damaging wind gusts and perhaps a tornado or two over the
next 1-2 hours.

DISCUSSION...Several line segments have shown signs of increasing organization/intensity across portions of Indiana, with a stronger
mesovortex producing a report of wind damage in Parke County over
the last 30-45 minutes. While buoyancy remains weak (250-500 J/kg
MLCAPE), strong low-level flow and clockwise-curved hodographs
(45-50 kts at 1 km AGL and ~200 m2/s2 0-500 m SRH, respectively, per
the IND VWP) will continue to support the potential for line
segments and embedded mesovortices capable of isolated damaging
winds gusts and perhaps a tornado or two across Severe Thunderstorm
Watch 90. Increasing low-level stability owing to nocturnal cooling
is then expected to mitigate the severe risk with time this evening.
