Areas affected...Eastern PA/northern NJ into western New England

Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 552...

Valid 171950Z - 172145Z

The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 552
continues.

SUMMARY...The threat for primarily damaging straight-line winds
continues for WW 552.

DISCUSSION...Ongoing thunderstorms across the watch area have begun
to loosely cluster into linear segments, and could potentially see
further organization given modest buoyancy and deep-layer vertical
shear of 40-45 kts. The greatest threat for damaging winds will be
with any mature, isolated updrafts that take on supercellular
characteristics, as well as any locally enhanced bowing segments
from merging/constructively interfering thunderstorm outflows. Steep
low-level lapse rates and relatively dry boundary layers/high MLLCL
heights will continue to support the downward mixing of thunderstorm
outflow winds.

The latest short-term guidance indicates that additional convective
development in the southwest portion of the watch area, primarily
Eastern PA into northern NJ, is likely around 22-02Z. The primary
threat with these storms will be damaging thunderstorm wind gusts.
