    Areas affected...Portions of Lower Michigan

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

    Valid 030026Z - 030230Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms should increase in coverage across portions
    of Lower Michigan during the next few hours. The primary concern
    would be isolated severe hail, though locally damaging gusts cannot
    be entirely ruled out.

    DISCUSSION...The latest VWP data from DTX/GRR shows a strengthening
    low-level jet and associated warm advection overspreading Lower MI
    -- to the north of an east/west-oriented warm front across northern
    IN/OH. This will favor an increase in thunderstorm coverage over the
    next few hours. The DTX 00Z soundings sampled an environment
    marginally supportive of elevated supercell structures embedded
    within increasing stratiform rain (around 55 kt of effective shear).
    However, marginal elevated buoyancy (880 J/kg MUCAPE) may limit
    updraft intensity to an extent. Nevertheless, the risk of isolated
    severe hail (around 1 inch) should increase during the next few
    hours, and locally damaging winds cannot be entirely ruled out with
    any established supercells -- especially farther south closer to the
    warm front.

    Areas affected...Portions of eastern Indiana into western and
    central Ohio

    Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely=20

    Valid 030045Z - 030245Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent

    SUMMARY...The severe threat will gradually increase across eastern
    Indiana into western and central Ohio into the overnight hours.
    Tornadoes, damaging winds, and large hail will all be possible. A
    Tornado Watch will be issued within the hour (by 0030Z).

    DISCUSSION...Along/south of an east/west-oriented warm front
    extending across northern IN/OH, an expansive warm/moist sector has
    developed (upper 50 to lower 60s dewpoints). Over the next few
    hours, a 70-80-kt low-level jet (and associated warm advection) will
    overspread the warm sector, promoting a rapid increase in
    surface-based thunderstorm development into the overnight hours. The
    00Z ILN sounding sampled fairly steep deep-layer lapse rates and
    around 1500 J/kg MLCAPE, along with 40 kt of effective shear and a
    large clockwise-curved hodograph (around 350 m2/s2 effective SRH).
    As storms overspread this environment, they should quickly intensify
    into a mix of supercells and organized bowing line segments --
    capable of tornadoes, damaging winds, and large hail. A Tornado
    Watch will be issued for parts of the area within the hour (by
    0030Z).
