    Mesoscale Discussion 1417

    Areas affected...Far Northeast NY...Northern NH...Northern
    VT...Northwest ME

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 031734Z - 031930Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Increasing thunderstorm coverage is anticipated, with the
    chance for a few of these storms to produce isolated hail and/or
    damaging wind gusts. Limited severe threat is expected to preclude
    the need for a watch.

    DISCUSSION...Airmass across the region continues to destabilize
    under diurnal heating and ample low-level moisture (i.e. 100-mb mean
    mixing ratios above 14 g/kg). Mid-level lapse rates are generally
    poor but the airmass is still expected to become moderately unstable
    (i.e. MLCAPE around 1000/1500 J/kg) as temperatures climb into the
    mid to upper 80s (perhaps some low 90s) and dewpoints remain in the
    70s.

    Thunderstorm coverage is expected to increase as modest ascent along
    the southern periphery of the stronger flow aloft grazes the area. Additionally, lift will be augmented by a low-amplitude, fast-moving
    shortwave trough moving across southern Quebec. Leading edge of this
    forcing for ascent has contributed to the development of
    thunderstorms from southern Quebec southwestward through the Finger
    Lakes region of NY. A few more organized and persistent
    thunderstorms (currently located about 30 to 45 miles
    north-northeast of EFK) will likely move into portions of northern
    VT and NH within the next hour or so. These storms, as well as any
    others that develop within this region, will experience slightly
    stronger vertical shear than those farther south across NY. As such,
    somewhat higher probabilities exist for a few strong to severe
    storms capable of hail and/or damaging wind gusts. Even so, the
    expectation is for any severe threat to remain too isolated to merit
    watch issuance.
