    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 546...

    Valid 251804Z - 252000Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 546
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms may continue to slowly intensify and
    organize across northern New Jersey and the lower Hudson Valley into
    southern New England, accompanied by increasing risk for potentially
    damaging wind gusts through 3-5 PM EDT.

    DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms have been gradually consolidating east of
    the mid-level cyclonic vorticity center, across far eastern
    Pennsylvania into western New Jersey, with colder cloud tops and
    lightning flash rates slowly expanding and increasing, respectively.
    Beneath 30 kt southwesterly flow around 500 mb, shear appears
    sufficiently strong to support further organization, with at least
    moderate easterly near-surface inflow ahead of activity.

    Although stronger southwesterly flow farther aloft will tend to
    continue advecting anvil cloud cover above the updraft inflow layer,
    latest mesoanalysis indicates that the boundary layer has already
    become characterized by 1000-1500 J/kg across northern New Jersey
    and the lower Hudson Valley into southern New England. So, there
    appears potential for convection to continue intensify and organize
    during the next few hours. As it does, the risk for potentially
    damaging wind gusts probably will increase.
