Areas affected...northeastern Pennsylvania...southern New
York...northern New Jersey...northern
Connecticut...Massachusetts...southern New Hampshire...and Rhode
Island
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 395...396...
Valid 232248Z - 232345Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 395, 396
continues.
SUMMARY...An isolated severe risk exists across the discussion area
(WWs 395 and 396) although that risk is diminishing in a few areas.
Portions of both WWs may be cancelled well before scheduled
expiration times.
DISCUSSION...The severe risk across the discussion area has
diminished substantially across portions of WW 395 as a result of
convective overturning and stabilization. A few areas in
southwestern portions of that WW remain unstable just ahead of a
linear segment over southeastern New York State (around 30 NE of
POU) that may begin to impact areas of western Connecticut over the
next hour or two, though indications are that broad areas of WW 395
may be cancelled before its initially scheduled expiration time
(00Z).
Farther west, weak to moderate instability persists ahead of
convection over WW 396, which has evolved into a series of
multicells and linear segments. A limited wind-damage risk will
exist with this activity over the next couple of hours, though
limited shear should mitigate the threat in most areas. Pending
convective trends, portions of WW 396 may also be cancelled early -
especially on the northern extent of the WW where a composite
front/outflow boundary is migrating southward and stabilization has
occurred to its north.
Lastly, a localized complex of updrafts have begun to produce
lightning in central Maine within an airmass mostly undisturbed by
prior convection. Shear is slightly better in this region, which
could encourage a limited risk for damaging wind gusts for the next
hour or so, although nocturnal cooling of surface temperatures
should eventually limit this risk as well.
