Areas affected...Western Indiana into Eastern Ohio
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 220...
Valid 181850Z - 182015Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 220
continues.
SUMMARY...Severe thunderstorms persist and are progressing eastward
across WW 220. They will continue to be capable of primarily
damaging wind gusts. Conditions are being monitored for a new WW
issued east of WW 220.
DISCUSSION...A line of severe thunderstorms continues to progress
across WW 220. Though the expectation is that the line should begin
to weaken with eastward extent, it will still be capable of damaging
wind gusts of 55-70 MPH within WW 220. Conditions will continue to
be monitored for a new WW eastward into Ohio, though uncertainty
exists in the convective longevity. Though the instability generally
decreases with eastward extent, the well-established cold-pool could
aid in persisting convection further east than the current WW 220
boundary.
