    Mesoscale Discussion 1437
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    1214 PM CDT Sun Sep 09 2018

    Areas affected...The southern Chesapeake Bay Region

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 091714Z - 091915Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...There is an isolated tornado/waterspout threat in the
    southern Chesapeake Bay area through the afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...Several showers/storms have formed in the southern
    Chesapeake Bay region where the airmass has destabilized. Low-level
    easterly flow in this area has led to elongated hodographs and
    locally enhanced helicity which has caused several of these
    showers/storms to rotate. MLCAPE has increased to around 1000 J/kg
    across this region and may increase to around 1500 J/kg by later
    this afternoon. Where low-level easterlies persist, effective shear
    is around 30 knots which will help support continued organization of
    storms in this region. These rotating, low-topped storms in an
    environment characterized by low LCLs will support an isolated
    tornado threat. Given the isolated/transient nature of circulations
    up to this point, a tornado watch is not anticipated at this time,
    but trends will continue to be monitored.
