Valid 302240Z - 310045Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 350 continues. SUMMARY...A local corridor of greater tornado threat is evident in the DC/Baltimore region over the next 1-3 hours. DISCUSSION...A narrow zone of favorably backed surface winds, south of a warm front near the PA/MD border, will be the most favorable corridor for tornadoes over the next 1-3 hours. Local VAD data from KLWX and nearby TDWRs show sufficient SRH for low-level mesocyclone development. A bookend vortex within a linear segment in northern Virginia will continue north-northeast into this favorable zone. Farther east, additional discrete storms will also have some potential to produce a tornado. The primary limiting factors will be modest buoyancy, weak mid-level lapse rates, and limited remaining time for surface heating. ...Wendt.. 05/30/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!-3WADs_akX7_deCQaD7cEx6y4GxZz7tMwM0UJDLe4o_WAVWFIx_redOOiqW61h_OC_BR4bJf-= wawHQxD-TMGTf7lyj8$ for graphic product...
