Trends are being monitored for the possibility of a severe weather watch. DISCUSSION...Scattered thunderstorm development is underway, as insolation contributes to steepening lapse rates and weakening inhibition, beneath a pocket of cool air aloft (at or below -12 to -14 C around 500 mb) advecting northeastward to the lee of the lower Great Lakes. This includes a clustering of storms now spreading to the north of the Pocono Mountains, near the exit region of a northeastward propagating mid-level jet streak (30-35 kt around 500 mb).=20 With continued boundary-layer heating ahead of this activity across eastern New York into adjacent portions of western New England, further upscale convective growth appears possible. As mixed-layer CAPE steadily increases in excess of 1000 J/kg, in the presence of modest vertical shear, convection may gradually organize with a strengthening cold pool becoming accompanied by increasing risk for damaging wind gusts. ...Kerr/Hart.. 07/24/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!8IPERJZ5V6xAKenN2rwqpwEy8McUq95gsijvgjVmjabahwJiq8YfLr40yJpGFSyP45aM8wW2K= T1DxzhOO70J1mroGyY$ for graphic product...
