    Areas affected...Central/eastern KY into extreme southern
    OH...western WV...extreme western VA

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 431...436...

    Valid 022242Z - 030015Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 431, 436
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Swaths of damaging wind will be possible this evening as
    storm clusters move eastward.

    DISCUSSION...A small bowing cluster evolved this afternoon across
    eastern KY and is currently passing near/north of Jackson, KY. In
    the short term, MLCAPE in excess of 2000 J/kg and moderate
    deep-layer southwesterly flow (as noted in the KJKL VWP) will
    continue to support the potential for a swath of damaging gusts with
    this cluster as it approaches southwest WV and extreme western VA
    early this evening.=20

    Another storm cluster is moving eastward across central KY, just to
    the east/southeast of Louisville. The bulk of this cluster is moving
    north of the outflow from the leading bowing segment across eastern
    KY, which is likely limiting storm intensity and organization to
    some extent. However, recent vigorous storm development has been
    noted in closer proximity to the outflow. The initial discrete cells
    in this area could pose an isolated hail threat, but with time, the
    central KY cluster may tend to propagate southeastward into the
    greater buoyancy, or else a new cluster may evolve out of new
    convection. Either of these scenarios could lead to an increasing
    damaging-wind threat across southeast KY, where the environment
    remains relatively undisturbed early this evening.
