DISCUSSION...Relatively strong heating of a very moist (PW near/above 2 inches) environment is underway this afternoon from southeast PA into MD and northern/central VA. MLCAPE is already above 2000 J/kg across much of the region, and may increase to near/above 3000 J/kg in areas where preconvective heating continues through late afternoon.=20 Storms have already developed across central PA, with additional development recently noted farther south along the Blue Ridge into northwest/west-central VA. Storm coverage will continue to increase with time, in response to an approaching midlevel shortwave trough currently over western PA.=20 Poor midlevel lapse rates and relatively weak effective shear (generally 15-25 kt) will tend to limit storm organization to some extent. However, the strongest initial cells may be capable of producing localized downbursts within the very moist environment. With time, consolidating outflows may result in one or more eastward-moving clusters that would move across the Mid Atlantic region. Any such cluster may be capable of producing localized swaths of more concentrated wind damage. Watch issuance is possible, depending on trends regarding clustering of storms with time. ...Dean/Mosier.. 07/14/2025 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!5S-SD-__UciARpxlHCTpxL7fWmdEphsHhxllbrj4ui5GwbeD4jv6nqbP5-oNWLxP3V0JseVxz= dE-93dTKV2EYcp6Xso$ for graphic product...
