DISCUSSION...Morning soundings from KALB and KBUF depicted very rich moisture, with PWs in the 1.8 - 2 inch range. Midlevel lapse rates are weak, but strong heating of this very moist airmass will result in MLCAPE increasing into the 1500-2500 J/kg range this afternoon. Scattered to numerous thunderstorms are expected to develop with time within the minimally capped environment. Generally weak effective shear (15-20 kt across PA/southern NY and 20-25 kt across northern NY) will tend to limit storm organization. However, steepening low-level lapse rates and large PW will support a threat of isolated wet microbursts and small outflow-dominant clusters capable of producing localized wind damage, especially where stronger pre-convective heating occurs.=20 The need for a watch is uncertain due to the anticipated lack of storm organization, but watch issuance will become increasingly possible if observational trends begin to support areas of more concentrated wind-damage potential. ...Dean/Mosier.. 07/13/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!6-bssELbRPynmR4_Z-M_QO60ABA9VhsNzkq_6O-GAoEPMOFACOn2ZmeSEZ87ZLj9WzdMNibvI= Z_sJXyVID_GEW0_pAo$ for graphic product...
