    Areas affected...Portions of the Mid-Atlantic

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 457...459...

    Valid 050019Z - 050215Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 457, 459
    continues.

    SUMMARY...A corridor of higher severe wind potential is emerging
    from eastern Maryland into Delaware, eastern Pennsylvania, and New
    Jersey. Wind gusts between 55-70 mph will be possible.

    DISCUSSION...Over the past hour, two more prominent clusters have
    emerged across southeast PA and MD with substantial upticks in
    lightning counts and steadily cooling cloud-top temperatures noted
    in IR imagery. At the surface, both of these clusters have produced
    severe wind gusts as they begin to impinge on a warm air mass with
    steep low-level lapse rates. Although temperatures downstream from
    these clusters have begun to cool due to the recent loss of daytime
    heating, temperatures remain in the low to mid 90s with 25-30 F
    dewpoint depressions noted ahead of the clusters and south of an
    outflow boundary.=20

    Further cooling/stabilization is expected, but maturing cold pools
    associated with these clusters, coupled with somewhat stronger
    mid-level flow with north and eastward extent, will likely maintain
    convective intensities and may promote some degree of
    intensification over the next couple of hours. Consequently, the
    potential for strong/severe winds (most likely between 55-70 mph)
    should be focused downstream into portions of far southeast PA and central/southern NJ - mainly along and south of the outflow
    boundary.
