THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH

BKN BANDS OF STG-SVR TSTMS ARE FCST TO CONTINUE MOVING EWD TO ENEWD
AT 25-35 KT ACROSS COASTAL AREAS OF MD/DE/NJ/NY AND SRN NEW ENGLAND.
CONVECTIVE TRANSLATIONAL SPEEDS AND DEEP-LAYER SHEAR EACH SHOULD
INCREASE WITH NWD EXTENT IN STEP WITH RELATIVELY FASTER MID-UPPER
LEVEL WINDS. FOR ANOTHER 2-3 HOURS...PRE-STORM ENVIRONMENT WILL
REMAIN CHARACTERIZED BY SFC DEW POINTS UPPER 60S TO LOW 70S F MOST
AREAS...COMBINING WITH INSOLATION TO OFFSET MODEST MIDLEVEL LAPSE
RATES AND GENERATE 1000-2000 J/KG MLCAPE. BUOYANCY WILL RESIDE ATOP
WELL-MIXED SUBCLOUD LAYER SUITABLE FOR MAINTAINING HAIL AND STG-SVR
DOWNDRAFTS TO SFC.

VIS IMAGERY INDICATES FORMERLY DENSE/SW-NE ALIGNED CLOUD PLUME OVER
