Mesoscale Discussion 1613
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1149 AM CDT Wed Jul 09 2025
Areas affected...Portions of the Mid-Atlantic
Concerning...Severe potential...Severe Thunderstorm Watch likely
Valid 091649Z - 091845Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent
SUMMARY...Thunderstorms will continue to intensify as they spread
east into the Mid-Atlantic region through the afternoon. Watch
issuance is expected.
DISCUSSION...Latest GOES IR and MRMS imagery all show steady
intensification of convection as well as a gradual increase in
convective coverage across the central Appalachians. This trend is
expected to continue over the next several hours amid continued
daytime heating/destabilization and as convection approaches the
apex of a buoyancy axis extending from the Carolinas into southern
PA. Additionally, moderate mid-level flow associated with a
low-amplitude upper disturbance is supporting adequate deep-layer
shear (around 30 knots) for organized convection, including a couple
of supercells. The expectation over the next several hours is that a
mix of discrete cells and clusters will gradually grow upscale into
one or more short, but organized, line segments given persistent
broad-scale ascent, limited capping, and storm motions largely
aligned with the zone of initiation. As such, an initial threat of
large hail and sporadic severe winds should transition to primarily
a severe wind threat as storms approach the I-95 corridor later this
afternoon. Watch issuance is expected to address this potential.
