MD 1612 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 507… FOR SOUTHERN/EASTERN VIRGINIA AND SOUTHERN MARYLAND
Mesoscale Discussion 1612 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0315 PM CDT Fri Jul 29 2022 Areas affected...Southern/eastern Virginia and southern Maryland Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 507... Valid 292015Z - 292145Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 507 continues. SUMMARY...Severe risk including the potential for thunderstorm-related wind damage continues within Severe Thunderstorm Watch 507, particularly for far east/southeast Virginia and Chesapeake Bay vicinity. DISCUSSION...A cluster of storms which has featured embedded rotational characteristics continues eastward across the Tidewater/coastal plain of southeast Virginia toward the Chesapeake as of 20z/4pm EDT. The near-coastal environment will continue to support the possibility of damaging winds in the short-term. Additional development will likely also continue along the west-southwestward trailing outflow boundary across southern Virginia. Even while storms may focus on the immediate cool side of the relatively fresh outflow, a near-boundary maximized colocation of buoyancy and moderate deep-layer shear will support at least some severe-weather potential within this corridor, particularly across southeast Virginia. ..Guyer.. 07/29/2022 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
