    Mesoscale Discussion 0551
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0116 PM CDT Mon May 28 2018

    Areas affected...Portions of south-central New York and
    north-central Pennsylvania

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 281816Z - 282045Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms are expected to increase over the area this
    afternoon. A few of these thunderstorms may produce isolated
    damaging wind gusts and severe hail. A WW issuance is unlikely.

    DISCUSSION...Strong heating across portions of New York and
    Pennsylvania has allowed a cumulus congestus field to develop per
    satellite imagery at 1800Z. Continued heating coupled with
    convergence along a weak lake breeze surface boundary should allow thunderstorms to develop over the next hour or so, which is also
    supported by various CAM solutions. While ample instability resides
    over the area (e.g., MLCAPE around 1500 J/kg), deep-layer shear
    values are relatively modest (20-25 knots). However, a belt of
    slightly higher deep-layer shear near 30 knots is located across
    portions of New York and far north-central Pennsylvania where
    mid-level flow is a bit stronger.

    While thunderstorm coverage is expected to be somewhat limited,
    storms that move through the aforementioned environment will be
    capable of producing isolated damaging wind gusts and severe hail
    this afternoon -- especially where shear is maximized across
    portions of New York. Storms should gradually weaken this evening as
    the boundary layer stabilizes with the onset of nocturnal cooling. A
    WW issuance is unlikely given the expected low coverage of any
    severe threats.
