However, the overall severe threat should be isolated, and a WW issuance is not expected. DISCUSSION...Pulse cellular storms have initiated along and to the lee of the central Appalachians due to strong diurnal heating and orographic lift. Surface temperatures are already in the mid 80s F, that with low 70s F dewpoints, are contributing to over 3000 J/kg SBCAPE amid negligible convective inhibition. However, tropospheric flow and deep-layer shear are very weak, and given poor mid-level lapse rates, the aforementioned SBCAPE is constrained to tall/thin profiles. As such, the main threat this afternoon is for brief and localized, strong/damaging gusts with the heavier storm cores. Therefore, the sparse nature of the severe threat should preclude a Severe Thunderstorm Watch issuance. ...Squitieri/Hart.. 06/28/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!67X-OslBAYyLpOZroRkz_QgrLhvONR7oxkI5L1VBIaw9td0Z9BhcskVfsCA7P9OkT_5k8Ho1J= vTni-FZ-yr9x66fF1c$ for graphic product...
