DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms continue to gradually increase in coverage and intensity within a low-level warm-air advection regime, north of the warm sector. The 00Z APX observed sounding depicts a thin but long CAPE profile above 700 mb, with 8 C/km mid-level lapse rates supporting near 1000 J/kg MUCAPE. The observed hodograph above 700 mb is elongated and straight, indicating strong speed shear in the mid-levels of the troposphere. As such, hail is possible with some of the stronger storms. The narrow constriction of CAPE in the buoyant layer suggests that maximum hail size may also be relatively limited, but may still exceed marginally severe thresholds in spots. Nonetheless, given the expected isolated nature of the severe hail threat, a WW issuance is not expected. ...Squitieri/Guyer.. 04/19/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!4RJQybswjFUfzA16ITxF_3XbpuIU8r6FMH67nJ16ry_SY101tPl3Kvm6b0I6FCcYDv_VhLNOw= yS0_YLVWN4PnwX5Gjg$ for graphic product...
