    Areas affected...the Mid-Atlantic into southern New York and
    southwestern New England

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 111902Z - 112100Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Scattered thunderstorm development is expected this
    afternoon across the mid-Atlantic northward into southern New York
    and southwestern New England. Severe wind gusts and hail are
    possible with the strongest storms.

    DISCUSSION...Some deeper convective attempts are underway this
    afternoon across portions of the mid-Atlantic, particularly in
    southern New York as of 1900z. This development is occurring in a
    warm, unstable airmass with surface temperatures in the upper 80s
    and lower 90s F and MLCAPE values around 2000+ J/kg. The 18z
    ALB/Albany, NY sounding sampled the northern periphery of this
    airmass (along the CAPE gradient) with 0-6-km shear of 24 kts. This
    has supported some sporadic, more organized thunderstorm development
    recently.

    As the afternoon progresses, diurnal heating should support
    additional thunderstorm development across the region. Furthermore,
    a mid-level impulse in eastern OH -- influencing the ongoing
    convection in WW312 -- will continue moving eastward and should
    provide additional support for convective initiation and maturation.
    Bulk shear is expected to remain generally in the 15-25 kt range
    which, amidst forecast large MLCAPE around 2500-3000 J/kg, will
    promote strong updrafts capable of producing wind gusts and hail.
    Uncertainty remains as to how much convection will develop and coalesce/strengthen in the short term, but trends will continue to
    be monitored for possible watch issuance this afternoon.
