THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 711
CONTINUES.

RECENT RADAR IMAGERY SHOWS NUMEROUS DISCRETE AND SMALL CLUSTERS OF
TSTMS ADVANCING SEWD TOWARDS THE ATLANTIC COAST. THESE TSTMS HAVE
FORMED ALONG AND AHEAD OF A DIFFUSE AND WEAKLY CONFLUENT SFC COLD
FRONT...PLACED AT APPROXIMATELY 20 E MSV TO 20 SE CXY PER 22Z SFC
SUBJECTIVE ANALYSIS. ALTHOUGH EFFECTIVE SHEAR REMAINS MODEST /AROUND
20 KTS/ DUE TO WEAK AND NEARLY UNIDIRECTIONAL FLOW THROUGH THE LOWER
HALF OF THE TROPOSPHERE...SEVERAL OF THESE TSTMS CONTINUE TO DISPLAY
STRONG REFLECTIVITY CORES...LIKELY CAPABLE OF PRODUCING SVR HAIL AND
ISOLATED DMGG DOWNBURST WINDS. EXTRAPOLATION OF CURRENT MOTION
SUGGESTS CLUSTERS OF TSTMS OVER SRN NY AND WRN CT SHOULD REACH THE
ATLANTIC COAST BY 23Z. HOWEVER...THE ENVIRONMENT WILL LIKELY REMAIN
SUPPORTIVE FOR ADDITIONAL GENERATION OF TSTMS THROUGH AT LEAST THE
NEXT 1-2 HRS. A GRADUAL TREND DOWNWARD IN TSTM COVERAGE/INTENSITY IS
EXPECTED TO OCCUR LATER THIS EVENING WITH THE LOSS OF DIABATIC
HEATING.
