DISCUSSION...A very moist airmass has advected inland across the Mid-Atlantic with dewpoints in the low to mid 70s. A somewhat dense stratus/stratocumulus deck has accompanied this low-level moisture advection which is stunting heating across the region. However, minimal heating is needed with SPC mesoanalysis indicating no inhibition and MLCAPE around 1500 J/kg. Some thunderstorms have already formed along a surface trough in central Pennsylvania. Given the weak capping, expect widespread thunderstorm by mid-day. However, this lack of capping will also limit greater destabilization and thus may mute the severe weather potential, especially given the weak lapse rates and moist thermodynamic profile. However, this moist environment (12Z IAD PWAT above the 90th percentile), will be favorable for water-loaded updrafts which could support strong downbursts capable of wind damage.=20 The greatest severe weather threat will likely be late this morning into the early afternoon when storms remain more discrete as meridional upper-level flow should support upscale growth with heavy rain eventually becoming the greater hazard. A severe thunderstorm watch may be needed by midday. ...Bentley/Mosier.. 07/09/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!6jBTXIAmVBHcv9SKKQrLy_ZjsBBs_XNUxlPZXYR5cuQvQsQ5QtwHdUJkU55Zrh3-dRbFIsx75= s2xHb40Wzk4kde1ItM$ for graphic product...
