   Mesoscale Discussion 1623

   1041 PM CDT Fri Aug 28 2020

   Areas affected...southern Lower Michigan...far northern Indiana

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 468...

   Valid 290341Z - 290515Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 468
   continues.

   SUMMARY...A few damaging gusts remain possible over mainly
   southwestern Lower Michigan. An isolated strong gust is possible
   into far northern Indiana.

   DISCUSSION...A line of storms along a cold front currently extends
   from southern Lower Michigan across far southern Lake Michigan, with
   isolated cells also developing over northern Illinois. Objective
   analysis shows weaker instability with greater inhibition over
   northern Ohio and southeastern Lower Michigan, and several storms on
   the northern end of the line have weakened as they approached this
   air mass.

   Southwesterly 925-850 mb winds continue to bring a warm, moist air
   mass ahead of the front, with the most favored area for continued
   strong to severe storms over southwestern Lower Michigan. A few
   strong gusts may eventually develop into far northern Indiana as
   well, assuming latest trends persist coverage-wise over IL.

   At this time, additional watches are not anticipated.
