    Areas affected...Ohio..Western West Virginia...Central and Eastern
    Kentucky

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 28...29...

    Valid 281108Z - 281315Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 28, 29 continues.

    SUMMARY...A tornado threat is expected to continue over the next few
    hours across parts of central and eastern Kentucky northward into
    southeast Ohio. Weather watch issuance or a watch extension in area
    may need to be considered to the east of the current watches.

    DISCUSSION...The latest high-resolution radar imagery from
    Wilmington, Ohio has a more extensive line segment in central and
    southern Ohio, containing multiple bowing structures. A tornado was
    recently reported with a bowing segment to the west of Columbus,
    Ohio. This part of the northern line is now located to the east of
    Columbus, and is expected to continue to have a tornado threat over
    the next hour or two. The severe threat, including a potential for
    hail and wind damage, may continue after daybreak.

    Further south in parts of central and eastern Kentucky,
    high-resolution radar shows a line of strong to severe storms from
    near Vanceburg, Kentucky southwestward to near Lexington. Strong to
    severe short bowing structures are evident within the line, with
    some supercells also present. This line is expected to continue to
    hold together as it moves eastward across the remainder of eastern
    Kentucky this morning. The strong low-level shear will likely
    support an isolated tornado threat. Hail and isolated damaging winds
    will also be possible.
