Valid 242212Z - 242345Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 545 continues. SUMMARY...Ongoing thunderstorms should continue to pose a threat for severe hail and damaging winds for a couple more hours this evening. DISCUSSION...Convection that strengthened earlier this afternoon across the OH Valley along and ahead of a weak front has produced occasional severe hail and damaging winds over the past couple of hours. The thermodynamic environment across this region remains favorable for robust thunderstorms in the short term, with latest mesoanalysis estimates showing around 2000-3500 J/kg MLCAPE present. Recent VWPs from area radars suggest low to mid-level flow remains fairly modest below about 6 km AGL, with some strengthening of northwesterly winds around 7-9 km AGL. A mix of multicells and marginal supercells should continue to pose a threat for mainly severe hail and damaging winds, respectively. This convection is forecast to slowly spread east-southeastward across parts of KY, southern/eastern IN, and southern/western OH over the next couple of hours. A less unstable airmass with eastward extent across the OH Valley and eventual nocturnal cooling should limit the overall severe threat farther east later this evening. ...Gleason.. 07/24/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!9Up0OVNuQtELmDQbwhRiu8reNaQKnNDe9jxM1V9VT0_01bQq5--NGl8XAy35VVd7IerlIUSNP= LbufbkZ_nZ0hM-g08k$ for graphic product...
