    Areas affected...Central/eastern KY into southeast IN...southwest

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 588...

    Valid 012215Z - 012345Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 588
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Some threat for damaging wind will move eastward into
    early evening. Downstream watch issuance is possible.

    DISCUSSION...A long-lived MCS currently moving across central KY
    continues to show signs of organization, with a well-defined cold
    pool and evidence of a relatively strong rear-inflow jet from
    regional VWPs. However, recent measured gusts have generally been
    subsevere, in the 35-45 kt range. While relatively weak low-level
    flow and deep-layer shear may continue to limit severe-wind
    potential to some extent, very warm, moist, and unstable downstream
    conditions (with MLCAPE of 2000-3000 J/kg) will continue to support
    a threat of at least isolated damaging wind as this MCS continues
    eastward into the early evening. As the MCS approaches the eastern
    edge of WW 588, downstream watch issuance will be possible,
    especially if there is any uptick in measured gusts and/or overall
    organization and intensity of the system.
