Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely=20
Valid 041736Z - 042000Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent
SUMMARY...The risk of severe thunderstorms capable of producing
widely scattered wind damage will increase over the next few hours.
A watch is likely this afternoon.
DISCUSSION...Boundary-layer cumulus is gradually deepening along a
lake breeze boundary southeast of Lake Erie, and within a zone of
broadly confluent low-level flow extending into central OH.
Continued diurnal heating amid lower 70s dewpoints will support
widely scattered thunderstorm development in these zones of
mesoscale ascent over the next few hours, given an uncapped air
mass. While around 20 kt of effective shear will limit thunderstorm organization, steep low/mid-level lapse rates (sampled by earlier
12Z soundings) and increasing deep-layer moisture will promote
scattered damaging wind gusts with loosely organized clusters and
cells. A watch is likely for parts of the area this afternoon.
