Areas affected...eastern OH...far eastern KY...western WV...and far
western PA
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 011909Z - 012115Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent
SUMMARY...The severe threat may increase during the next few hours
across parts of the area. Watch issuance appears unlikely at this
time.
DISCUSSION...In the wake of earlier convective processing, visible
satellite loops show an increasingly agitated cumulus field
developing across east-central OH, where weak low-level convergence
is evident ahead of an eastward-advancing cold front. As large-scale
ascent continues to overspread the area, isolated convection could
develop and spread eastward, where it would encounter moderate
surface-based instability (1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE) and effective
shear near 45 knots. In the vicinity of a gradually lifting warm
front across the area, locally backed surface winds beneath
strengthening southwesterly flow aloft is resulting in elongated
hodographs with nearly 100 m2/s2 effective SRH in the pre-convective
environment. If convection can develop and persist, organized
multicells and transient supercell structures capable of locally
damaging gusts and isolated large hail will be possible, while a
brief tornado cannot be ruled out. Currently, confidence in storm
development is low, though trends will continue to be monitored.
