    Areas affected...Eastern Pennsylvania...far southern New
    York...western New Jersey...and the DelMarva

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

    Valid 091428Z - 091600Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Increasing threat for wind damage from water-loaded
    downbursts by midday.

    DISCUSSION...A very moist airmass has advected inland across the
    Mid-Atlantic with dewpoints in the low to mid 70s. A somewhat dense stratus/stratocumulus deck has accompanied this low-level moisture
    advection which is stunting heating across the region. However,
    minimal heating is needed with SPC mesoanalysis indicating no
    inhibition and MLCAPE around 1500 J/kg. Some thunderstorms have
    already formed along a surface trough in central Pennsylvania. Given
    the weak capping, expect widespread thunderstorm by mid-day.
    However, this lack of capping will also limit greater
    destabilization and thus may mute the severe weather potential,
    especially given the weak lapse rates and moist thermodynamic
    profile. However, this moist environment (12Z IAD PWAT above the
    90th percentile), will be favorable for water-loaded updrafts which
    could support strong downbursts capable of wind damage.=20

    The greatest severe weather threat will likely be late this morning
    into the early afternoon when storms remain more discrete as
    meridional upper-level flow should support upscale growth with heavy
    rain eventually becoming the greater hazard. A severe thunderstorm
    watch may be needed by midday.
