    Areas affected...the central Appalachians and Mid-Atlantic States

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

    Valid 161741Z - 162015Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated severe hail and damaging winds should develop by
    late afternoon across parts of the central Appalachians and
    Mid-Atlantic States.

    DISCUSSION...Multiple convective regimes are apparent through the
    rest of the afternoon within relatively nebulous large-scale ascent.
    This may yield a less focused severe threat, but should support
    isolated severe hail and damaging winds by late afternoon. One
    regime may be emanating ahead of a subtle MCV remnant that appears
    to be along the southeast OH/western WV border area. Despite a
    pronounced cirrus canopy downstream and low-level westerlies, deep
    convection may be sustained ahead of the MCV across northern WV. A
    few cells have also formed along remnant outflow in
    southwest-central PA, and may eventually develop southeast of this
    into parts of MD. With 35-45 kt effective bulk shear, largely driven
    by increasing speed with height above the low-levels, and 1500-2000
    J/kg of MLCAPE amid moderate mid-level lapse rates, a mix of both
    severe hail and wind will be possible.
