Valid 252035Z - 252200Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 79 continues. SUMMARY...The severe threat continues across Severe Thunderstorm Watch 079. Damaging gusts and large hail are the main threats. A local WW extension in time is planned. DISCUSSION...Multiple strong to potentially severe supercell thunderstorms continue to progress across Severe Thunderstorm Watch 079. MRMS mosaic radar imagery - 7 km CAPPI depicts an overall increase in storm intensity across the watch, with an increase in the number of storms with 30 dBZ exceeding 40 kft also noted. These storms are benefiting from a boundary layer experiencing maximum diurnal heating, overspread by a plume of 7 C/km mid-level lapse rates, contributing to widespread 2000+ J/kg MLCAPE. Despite departing deep-layer ascent, 40-50 kts of effective bulk shear remains across the warm sector as 80+ kts of 500 mb flow from an associated jet streak glances the region from the north. As such, supercell structures may persist and continue supporting mainly a damaging gust/large hail threat through the remainder of the diurnal heating cycle. Since Severe Thunderstorm Watch 079 expires at the top of the hour, a local extension in time is planned to address the persisting severe threat. ...Squitieri.. 03/25/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!5LzkR1WZH41U2iJuTFmgP4xr6lqzcrBKKd87NPlTWblv1eOc5cuWMwZf6MdZDaoBokVfMBzFJ= -PtNVFg--ntVJmnkmk$ for graphic product...
