   Mesoscale Discussion 0346
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   1112 AM CDT Tue Apr 02 2024

   Areas affected...Portions of southeastern WV into western VA

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 74...

   Valid 021612Z - 021715Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 74 continues.

   SUMMARY...A compact, bowing cluster should gradually weaken as it
   moves into western Virginia this afternoon. Downstream watch
   issuance is not expected at this time.

   DISCUSSION...It appears that the small, compact cluster/bow that has
   produced multiple measured severe wind gusts and damage reports
   across WV is slowly weakening as it encounters a less unstable and
   increasingly hostile thermodynamic environment in far southeastern
   WV and western VA. While strong/gusty winds and occasional damage
   will remain possible in the short term given the cluster's continued
   organization, downstream watch issuance is not currently expected
   into western VA.
