Areas affected...Southeast Virginia and eastern North Carolina
Concerning...Severe potential...Severe Thunderstorm Watch likely=20
Valid 091736Z - 091930Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent
SUMMARY...A severe thunderstorm watch will likely be issued by 19Z
across southeast Virginia and eastern North Carolina.
DISCUSSION...A stationary front is present from central Virginia to
far northeast North Carolina early this afternoon. This front
separates an airmass with temperatures in the low to mid 80s and
dewpoints in the low 60s to the south from temperatures in the 70s
and dewpoints in the upper 50s to near 60 to the north. This front
will start to surge south through the day as a mid-level shortwave
trough moves through the region and high pressure builds into the
Great Lakes. As it does, expect some thunderstorm development along
the front. Initially these storms will form in relatively weak
buoyancy, but eventually will move into greater instability in
east-central North Carolina where mid 60s dewpoints are expected to
move inland with MLCAPE of 1500 to 2000 J/kg. This moderate to
strong instability, combined with effective shear around 35 knots
will support supercell structures with a threat for large hail and
damaging winds. Given the cloud-layer shear, cannot rule out some
hail approaching 1.75" to 2" diameter with the strongest supercells
near maturity, especially as they move into east-central North
Carolina where the greatest instability is anticipated.=20=20
A severe thunderstorm watch will likely be needed by 19Z.
