    Mesoscale Discussion 0538
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    1229 PM CDT Sun May 27 2018

    Areas affected...Portions of central/northern
    Virginia...central/southern Maryland...and Eastern West Virginia

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 271729Z - 272000Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms will increase in coverage this afternoon
    with locally severe hail and damaging wind gusts possible. A WW
    issuance is unlikely.

    DISCUSSION...Latest visible satellite and radar imagery from 1730Z
    shows thunderstorms developing over the higher terrain of the
    Appalachians/Blue Ridge Mountains as well as along a backdoor cold
    front across northern/northeastern Maryland. Ample insolation
    through the morning and early afternoon coupled with a moist
    boundary layer (e.g., surface dew points in the 70s) has allowed
    MLCAPE values to climb to around 1500-2000 J/kg. While mid-level
    flow is relatively modest (e.g., 30 knots at 500 mb), the presence
    of a nearby weak mid-level trough will foster effective bulk shear
    values of 20-35 knots (greatest over Maryland). While CAM guidance
    suggests messy storm modes, CAPE/Shear parameter space will support
    at least transient storm organization with the potential for locally
    severe hail and damaging wind gusts in the strongest storms.
    However, these threats are currently expected to remain too isolated
    for a WW issuance.

    Mesoscale Discussion 0538
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK

    Areas affected...portions of northern and central Florida

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 051559Z - 051800Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Limited risk for damaging wind gusts locally will continue
    into this afternoon across parts of Florida. Given the limited
    risk, a watch is not expected.

    DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows a band of strong storms moving
    across northern Florida, with some embedded complex structures/areas
    of circulation. The background environment across the northern half
    of the Peninsula is characterized by a moist/unstable airmass, per
    surface observations in conjunction with morning RAOBs, along with
    moderate west-southwesterly flow aloft. The CAPE/shear combination
    will continue to support a few stronger cells, with locally
    gusty/damaging winds possible with the strongest updrafts. Along
    with the ongoing band of storms crossing northern Florida, a
    second/weaker bowing band of cells off the west-central Florida
    coast could increase a bit as it encounters the diurnally
    destabilizing inland boundary layer.

    At this time, the expected isolated and low-end nature of the risk
    suggests that a watch will not be required.
