    Areas affected...Portions of NY and VT

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 481...

    Valid 131920Z - 132115Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 481
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The threat for scattered to numerous damaging winds will
    continue to increase this afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...Convection has generally consolidated along the cold
    front across western/central NY this afternoon. A moderately to
    strongly unstable airmass is present along/ahead of these
    thunderstorms, with MLCAPE of 1500-2000 J/kg estimated by latest
    mesoanalysis. A couple of discrete thunderstorms with occasional
    supercell characteristics have developed ahead of the line across
    northern NY. Isolated severe hail may occur with this activity.
    Steepened low-level lapse rates (0-3 km layer around 7-8 C/km) will
    aid in efficient mixing of stronger downdraft winds to the surface.
    And given the mainly linear nature of the convection ongoing
    along/near the front, scattered to numerous damaging winds are
    expected to be the primary severe threat through the rest of the
    afternoon. A 25-35 kt southerly low-level jet remains focused across
    NY/VT into southern Quebec. Associated low-level shear appears
    sufficient to support some updraft rotation and tornado threat with
    both the discrete thunderstorms ahead of the line and within the
    line itself.
