Areas affected...Portions of New England
Concerning...Tornado Watch 497...
Valid 161440Z - 161615Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 497 continues.
SUMMARY...The potential for isolated damaging winds and a brief
tornado should continue this morning.
DISCUSSION...Multiple low-topped thunderstorms remain embedded
within a broad plume of warm-advection related precipitation across
parts of New England this morning. Both low and mid-level lapse
rates remain quite poor based on the 12Z observed soundings from
OKX/GYX. This is likely hampering updraft intensity to some extent,
with MLCAPE generally 500 J/kg or less based on latest mesoanalysis
estimates. Even so, a veering/strengthening wind profile has been
noted through low/mid levels with recent VWPs from KBOX/KGYX.
Accounting for current thunderstorm motions yields around 100 m2/s2
of 0-1 km shear, which should be sufficient for occasional low-level
updraft rotation and some threat for a brief tornado. Isolated
damaging winds may also occur with water-loaded downdrafts in the
more linear structures that can be maintained.
