Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms will pose a risk of damaging gusts Wednesday morning from eastern Kentucky into far southern Ohio and West Virginia. ....Central Appalachians... A narrow corridor of strongly forced convection will be ongoing Wednesday morning along a cold front from central KY into southeast OH. Strong vertical shear will be present, with a 50-60 kt southwesterly 850 mb jet overspreading the region ahead of the main upper trough over the Great Lakes and Mid-MS Valley. Modest midlevel lapse rates will be in place, though boundary-layer dewpoints generally in the 55-59 F range will largely limit stronger surface-based instability. Still, around 150-400 J/kg MLCAPE is forecast, supporting isolated thunderstorms along the strongly forced line of convection. Background gradient winds will already be strong in the vicinity of the front, but a few convectively enhanced damaging gusts are possible for a few hours during the morning. More focused large-scale ascent will lift northeast with time and instability will generally wane with eastward extent as convection develops eastward through the afternoon. ...Leitman.. 02/27/2024 $$ = = = To unsubscribe from WX-STORM and you already have a login, go to https://lists.illinois.edu and use the "Unsubscribe" link.
