    Areas affected...Lower Great Lakes Vicinity

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 492...494...

    Valid 181928Z - 182100Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 492, 494
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The threat for damaging winds will continue, particularly
    where surface heating has been greatest. Isolated large hail and
    perhaps a tornado will be possible in western New York with
    convection near the warm front.

    DISCUSSION...Convection within western New York continues to moves
    southeast. Stronger cells in the vicinity of Rochester/Buffalo will
    pose a threat for isolated large hail and damaging winds. The
    tornado threat with these cells is nonzero, but it is conditional on
    airmass recovery from the southwest as these cells are within
    outflow currently. Small linear segments are also evident farther
    southwest within southwestern Ontario. This activity will move
    through Lake Erie and eventually impact northeast Ohio into
    northwestern Pennsylvania. Temperatures along the lake shore are
    nearing 90 F. Wind damage would be possible in these areas over the
    next 1-2 hours.
