Valid 070407Z - 070600Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 598 continues. SUMMARY...Strong/severe thunderstorms will spread toward the OH River early this morning. DISCUSSION...LLJ is forecast to strengthen across southern IN over the next few hours as 500mb speed max rotates into the base of the trough over southeast MO. This should contribute to some air mass recovery across southern IN as the primary baroclinic zone has advanced north of the OH River. Over the last hour or so, upstream convection has grown upscale into a mature MCS that currently extends across southwestern IN into southeast IL. Leading edge of this activity is propagating southeast toward the OH River and should progress through central into southeast parts of ww598 over the next few hours. While hail is likely occurring with the more robust updrafts along the leading edge of the MCS, it appears wind may become the more dominant feature as the storm mode has evolved beyond discrete supercells. Even so, strong shear favors rotation and a brief tornado remains possible with embedded supercells. ...Darrow.. 08/07/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!-vzhdPcaBh-C4R7L03Sj8UPdXwhEK4LbGkP8s02ul0k_9G_eek9MrXsC-JizSnuHpLC_h3VIJ= P3rhLzoIFPQtnY8OOQ$ for graphic product...
