Valid 202223Z - 210000Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 154 continues. SUMMARY...The severe weather threat continues across tornado watch 154. DISCUSSION...A broken line of supercells continues to move east across northern Illinois and far southern Wisconsin. These supercells have been prolofic hail producers thus far with nor reports of tornadoes or severe wind gusts. Storms are likely at their peak intensity now, coincident with maximum heating. Expect storms to weaken by 8-9pm as the boundary layer begins to cool and inhibition increases.=20 Regional VWPs show a modest increase in low-level SRH over the past 2 hours. This may support some continued tornado threat, but expect large hail to continue to be the primary threat, perhaps with some increasing wind threat as storms start to congeal near the Chicago metro area.=20 In addition, some storms have formed east of the current watch across southern Lake Michigan, northwest Indiana and east-central Illinois. There seems to be a boundary, not apparent in surface observations, which is initiating these storms all the way back to southeast Missouri. However, these storms are forming on the eastern periphery of the instability and are quickly moving toward a region with dewpoints in the 40s. Therefore, expect these storms to remain sub-severe this evening. ...Bentley.. 04/20/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!6Bl3vFAisXBbgQD95u6sH-7Rc_suwvNacmvu4kTdMtXyFL_Xp70J-Qgi6NBeUD2TvcEacLGvZ= H-1YSLLZSmlFKERrKc$ for graphic product...
