   ...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON
   AND EARLY EVENING ACROSS MUCH OF NEW YORK AND NEW ENGLAND...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Strong wind gusts are possible later today from New York into much
   of New England.

   ...Northeast...
   The current forecast area appears to be on track, with no changes
   made.  A band of showers and thunderstorms is organizing from lake
   Ontario northeastward along the St Lawrence Valley.  This activity
   will move quickly eastward across much of NY early this afternoon,
   and across much of New England through early evening.  Widespread
   clouds are present ahead of the convection, which will limit
   low-level lapse rates and CAPE.  It is likely that these fast-moving
   showers and storms will produce gusty and marginally damaging winds,
   but it is uncertain how prevalent the risk of 50 knot winds will be.
    Given the overall marginal thermodynamic environment, will maintain
   the ongoing MRGL risk area.  Activity should move off the New
   England coast by mid-evening, ending the threat of gusty winds.
