Line of Thunderstorms developing.

 Severe update



The line of thunderstorms is going to move westward across the region some of the storms will turn severe.  The National Weather Service has issued a couple of Severe Thunderstorm Watches.

Everything I said earlier is still in play. These storms will be very capable of producing damaging winds of 60+ mph. winds this strong could knock down trees and power lines bringing the risk for scattered power outages. Moderate to perhaps large hail could also cause damage to personal property.   With the chance for heavy rain localized flash flooding could cause issues too. . Isolated tornadoes can’t be ruled out.

   The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a

   * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of 
     Far Southeast Indiana
     Extreme Northern Kentucky
     Ohio
     Western Pennsylvania
     Northern West Virginia
     Lake Erie

   * Effective this Sunday afternoon and evening from 1225 PM until
     800 PM CDT.

   * Primary threats include...
     Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph likely
     Isolated large hail events to 1 inch in diameter possible
     A tornado or two possible

   SUMMARY...Thunderstorm development is expected to increase in
   coverage and intensity along and ahead of a cold front moving
   eastward across the Ohio Valley. Damaging wind gusts will be the
   primary severe hazard, although isolated hail is possible within the
   strongest updrafts. A low-probability threat for a line-embedded
   tornado exists as well, particularly across eastern Ohio and western
   Pennsylvania later this afternoon/early evening.

   The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 135
   statute miles east and west of a line from 20 miles east northeast
   of Cleveland OH to 20 miles south southwest of Athens OH. For a
   complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline
   update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU3).

   PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

   REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
   favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area.
   Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening
   weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible
   warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce
   tornadoes.

   &&

   AVIATION...A few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to
   1 inch. Extreme turbulence and surface wind gusts to 60 knots. A few
   cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 500. Mean storm motion vector

   The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a

   * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of 
     Western New York
     Far Northern Pennsylvania

   SUMMARY...Thunderstorm development is anticipated across the region
   this afternoon, along and ahead of a east-moving cold front. Overall
   buoyancy will likely remain modest, but moderate to strong
   deep-layer shear is in place, supporting the potential for
   occasionally organized bowing segments capable of damaging gusts.

   The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 60
   statute miles east and west of a line from 45 miles northeast of
   Rochester NY to 10 miles south southeast of Bradford PA. For a
   complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline
   update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU4).

   PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

   REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
   favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area.
   Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening
