MESOSCALE DISCUSSION 1154
NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
1149 AM CDT MON JUN 28 2010

AREAS AFFECTED...PORTIONS CENTRAL/NRN NJ...ERN PA...SERN NY...SRN
VT...SRN NH...CT...MA...RI.

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH LIKELY

VALID 281649Z - 281745Z

SVR POTENTIAL WILL INCREASE THROUGH EARLY-MID AFTERNOON OVER SWATH
OF NEW ENGLAND AND MID-ATLANTIC REGION IN FAVORABLY DESTABILIZING
AIR MASS...WITH MIXED CONVECTIVE MODE BUT SUFFICIENT SHEAR FOR BOTH
SUPERCELLULAR AND BOWING STORM MORPHOLOGIES.

SFC ANALYSIS INDICATES DIFFERENTIAL DIABATIC HEATING ZONE FROM
S-CENTRAL PA NEWD TO SRN PA -- RELATED TO SRN FRINGE OF
PERSISTENT/THICK CLOUD DECK EVIDENT IN VIS IMAGERY. IN AND S OF
THIS ZONE -- ROUGHLY ALONG LINE FROM HGR-POU-PSM -- STG SFC HEATING
COMBINED WITH SFC DEW POINTS NEAR 70 F WILL BOOST MLCAPE INTO
1000-2000 J/KG RANGE. 12Z RAOBS AND MODIFIED RUC SOUNDINGS SUGGEST
MOIST LAYER IS RATHER SHALLOW AND EASILY MIXED
VERTICALLY...ULTIMATELY RESULTING IN INVERTED-V THERMODYNAMIC
PROFILE THROUGH SUBCLOUD LAYER. IN TURN...THIS WILL SUPPORT
MAINTENANCE OF STG-SVR DOWNDRAFTS TO SFC...WITH RELATED WIND DAMAGE
THREAT. BELT OF ENHANCED SWLYS ALOFT...PRECEDING SHORTWAVE TROUGH
NOW OVER UPPER GREAT LAKES REGION...WILL OFFSET PRESENCE OF WLY SFC
WIND COMPONENT ENOUGH TO MAINTAIN/SLIGHTLY INCREASE 35-50 KT
EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR MAGNITUDES CURRENTLY INDICATED OVER REGION.
LACK OF MORE FOCUSED LOW-LEVEL CONVERGENCE ACTUALLY MAY SUPPORT
RELATIVELY DISCRETE STORM MODES EARLY...BEFORE ACTIVITY GROWS
UPSCALE INTO CLUSTERS/BANDS.
