    Areas affected...central to southern Indiana to the Ohio River

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 582...

    Valid 132022Z - 132145Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 582
    continues.

    SUMMARY...A threat of severe wind gusts and marginal hail will
    persist into central to southern Indiana.

    DISCUSSION...A cluster of storms on the southern periphery of the
    dying MCS has remained relatively strong/persistent today across
    central IL, and is now moving into IN. These storms continue to
    track along the instability gradient, with access to a very moist
    air mass (PWAT > 2.20") and around 3000 J/kg MLCAPE.

    Recent radar trends show other storms developing ahead/southeast of
    the main storm cluster, indicative of the uncapped air mass.
    Low-level wind fields are weak, but at least some rightward
    propagation is possible into the peak heating hours. Localized
    severe wind gusts will remain the main threat, though marginal hail
    may occur from time to time.
