    Areas affected...parts of southern Indiana...northern Kentucky...and southwestern Ohio

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 191925Z - 192130Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...A few stronger storms -- capable producing strong wind
    gusts and small hail -- will be possible this afternoon. WW
    issuance is not anticipated at this time.

    DISCUSSION...Latest satellite imagery shows that filtered sunshine
    -- and associated afternoon heating -- has occurred over the last
    couple of hours, but with an increase in cu/cb at this time --
    particularly over southern Indiana. On the western fringe of the
    cumuliform cloudiness, radar indicates increasing deep convection
    (over far southwestern Indiana) near the cold front, with some
    lightning now indicated.

    RAP-based objective analysis shows -- aided by the aforementioned
    heating -- that mixed-layer CAPE has increased to near/just above
    500 J/kg, and with a bit of additional heating destabilization
    possible, some increase in convective intensity is expected over the
    next couple of hours.

    With low-level flow weakly veering, and increasing to 50 kt between
    2km and 3km AGL, and in excess of 70 kt at mid levels, shear is
    plenty sufficient to aid in convective organization, and associated
    potential for strong wind gusts locally. Though coverage of any
    severe-weather reports would likely remain sparse, thus negating any
    current consideration for WW issuance, we will continue to monitor environmental evolution across the area.
