Valid 170019Z - 170215Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 548 continues. SUMMARY...Confidence is increasing in the potential for a corridor of wind damage across parts of far northeast Virginia into northern New Jersey. DISCUSSION...GOES IR imagery trends from the past 30-60 minutes show steady cloud-top cooling as a broken line of convection deepens from far northeast VA into southeast PA and NJ. Latest VWP observations and upper-air analyses show somewhat weaker mid to upper-level flow as compared to locations further north (where an organized MCS is ongoing), but mean wind and deep-layer shear vectors should favor upscale growth in the coming hour into a somewhat more cohesive line of storms. Regional terminal radar imagery already shows some degree of cold pool amalgamation, which supports this idea. RAP mesoanalysis indicates that the apex of a buoyancy ridge lies immediately downstream of the developing line, and deep-layer wind shear is still sufficient (around 25-35 knots) to support some degree of convective organization. Consequently, the potential for a line of thunderstorms capable of damaging to severe winds should increase over the next 1-2 hours as thunderstorms continue to intensify. ...Moore.. 07/17/2024 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!9GRqyUU5aHTPG_dsMJiNTQ8HG45kW2z1ArKGDIHNLxMSMmMX0QqYeLP2TpCOCJTRsat9BUOT9= PW3BwnvlfTioKThQvQ$ for graphic product...
