Valid 091827Z - 092000Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 617 continues. SUMMARY...Within Tornado Watch 617, a potentially favorable corridor for a couple tornadoes is evident from southeastern NY into western MA and southern VT this afternoon. DISCUSSION...Latest visible satellite imagery indicates filtered diurnal heating (temperatures climbing into the upper 70s/lower 80s) within small cloud breaks in the vicinity of an east/west-oriented warm front moving slowly northward across southeastern NY to near MA and VT. Given the high-PW/tropical airmass in place, this heating may yield sufficient (albeit weak) MLCAPE for a couple low-topped, surface-based showers/storms this afternoon. Any convection that can root in the boundary layer may evolve into low-topped supercells, aided by strong deep-layer flow/shear associated with Post-Tropical Cyclone Debby.=20 Additionally, the aforementioned corridor will be located beneath the core of a northward-advancing low-level jet during peak heating -- on the eastern periphery of the most substantial surface-pressure falls. Here, large, clockwise-curved/sickle-shaped hodographs (around 400 m2/s2 0-500m SRH per KENX VWP), will conditionally support a couple tornadoes with the more robust surface-based convection. ...Weinman.. 08/09/2024 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!_f8ltmry-qleDsnL9434TZZCzc3sVBVOUHBzT3VvvP62WdKOHb4JPt8nsxwZ3_dUx5lc5sZLV= __E6BaVtZtKmT9UDkQ$ for graphic product...
