   Areas affected...Southeastern Lower Michigan

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 522...

   Valid 201851Z - 202015Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 522
   continues.

   SUMMARY...The risk of severe winds and isolated large hail is
   spreading east-southeastward into southeastern Lower Michigan this
   afternoon.

   DISCUSSION...Latest radar data from KDTX shows a
   northeast-southwest-oriented QLCS tracking east-southeastward at
   around 40 kt across southeastern Lower Michigan -- with additional
   supercell development immediately ahead of the line. Continued
   diurnal destabilization across the pre-convective environment
   (characterized by increasingly agitated HCRs) will support the
   maintenance of the line given around 45 kt of 0-6 km shear oriented
   oblique to the gust front (per KDTX VWP). Severe gusts up to 70 mph
   are the main concern, though isolated large hail is possible with
   the leading supercells and where breaks in the convective line
   occur. Additionally, VWP data shows modest low-level hodograph
   curvature (around 200 m2/s2 0-2 km SRH) which could support embedded
   rotating updrafts and a non-zero tornado risk.
