    Areas affected...much of northern New York into Vermont

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

    Valid 032333Z - 040200Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Storms may increase in coverage this evening near Lake
    Ontario and across much of northern New York and Vermont. Conditions
    will favor marginal hail and locally damaging gusts. Watch potential
    will depend on storm trends over the next 1-2 hours.

    DISCUSSION...Numerous storms persist across southwest Ontario this
    evening, with eastern extent of the stronger activity just north of
    Lake Ontario. Cooler trajectories off the lake have likely slowed
    the eastward progression of these cells as they have generally
    favored the warmer inflow from the west. Downstream of these storms
    into northern NY and VT, modest instability developed during the
    afternoon with ample heating and cool air aloft steepening lapse
    rates. Convergence and storm development has been generally limited
    to the warm advection area along the eastern instability gradient
    along the NY/VT border. Here, low-level veering of the winds with
    height have supported sporadic strong cells with supercell
    characteristics at times, with 0-1 SRH around 100-150 m2/s2.

    As storms beneath the upper trough persist over Canada, additional
    outflow may be produced, with various zones of convergence possibly
    helping to initiate new storms into northern NY. While the CU fields
    have diminished with loss of heating, the air mass remains largely
    uncapped, and it will not take much lift to initiate new storms with
    wind or marginal hail threat over the next several hours. As such,
    trends will be monitored for possible uptick in storm activity.
