Valid 150056Z - 150300Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 224 continues. SUMMARY...The risk of large hail and severe gusts continues across the eastern portion of Severe Thunderstorm Watch 224 this evening. DISCUSSION...Several supercell clusters are tracking southeastward across the eastern portion of Severe Thunderstorm Watch 224 in south-central Illinois this evening. These storms are maintaining residence time in the zone of moderate surface-based instability (1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE) and 30 kts of 0-6 km shear (per regional VWP). Given the somewhat separated nature of these storms through this corridor, large hail up to 1.5 inches remains possible, along with locally damaging gusts with the more upscale-grown clusters (aided by water-loading processes). While some of this activity could extend southeastward into parts of western Kentucky, current thinking is that the overall severe risk will become increasingly isolated during the next couple of hours, and a downstream watch is not expected at this time. ...Weinman.. 05/15/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_F1clClK3sM4ZFV5X7jmfMwjX4H5nGrrJ0gLcrpz7PGlGbocX1kKjmJKP3mC4aLn1QjSLhcde= 8m1L0S7gKL2-fh76dE$ for graphic product...
