Damaging winds and perhaps a tornado or two appear to be the main concerns. Convective and environmental trends are being monitored for a possible watch for parts of the area. DISCUSSION...Strong diurnal heating within cloud breaks from eastern PA northeastward across southern New England is supporting steep low-level lapse rates amid lower 70s boundary-layer dewpoints. While large-scale ascent is generally weak across the area, convection approaching from the west and potentially new development along mesoscale/differential heating boundaries could become strong to severe, given 40 kt of deep-layer shear per regional VWP. Ample low/midlevel flow and the steepened low-level lapse rates will favor a damaging-wind risk, and sufficient low-level hodograph curvature could support a brief tornado or two with any sustained supercell structures. Overall, confidence in the development of persistent strong/severe updrafts is low owing to the weak forcing for ascent, though convective and environmental trends are being monitored for a possible watch this afternoon. ...Weinman/Hart.. 06/23/2024 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!-VCwvA28UxvKOSKZcEgL3_8wj0RfvVhpglEGu65t_zquPBNNj62FDn5c9sPswZ7nTCpyZwnPZ= 78cCqadRYI5uI7irkg$ for graphic product...
