    Mesoscale Discussion 1628

    Areas affected...Portions of the Mid-Atlantic

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

    Valid 061711Z - 061845Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Some potential exists for an uptick in convective
    intensity across eastern Virginia and the remainder of the Delmarva
    this afternoon. Locally damaging winds would be the primary threat.
    Watch issuance is possible, but remains fairly uncertain.

    DISCUSSION...A thin line of shallow ascent/convection is pushing
    east across Virginia early this afternoon. With most forcing for
    ascent lifting away from the region and surface heating limited,
    considerable uncertainty remains if widespread convection can deepen sufficiently for an organized severe threat over the next several
    hours. However, northward advection of low-level theta-e should
    slowly boost MLCAPE values upwards of 1000 J/kg later this
    afternoon.

    KAKQ VWP data illustrate decreasing 0-1km flow over the last few
    hours, as the core of the low-level jet lifts away from the region.
    However, KDOX data continue to show strong south/southwesterly flow
    around 50-60 kt at 1 km, such that any deeper/sustained convection
    this afternoon could pose a damaging wind threat. Primarily
    line-parallel, uni-directional flow should reduce any tornado
    threat, but strong low-level shear and some streamwise vorticity
    component could yield a brief tornado, especially if low-level lapse
    rates steepen. Watch issuance is possible, but questions regarding
    convective depth/organization cast uncertainty on this potential.
