Valid 061949Z - 062115Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 607
continues.
SUMMARY...A threat for damaging wind and possibly a tornado or two
will spread eastward into late afternoon.
DISCUSSION...A supercell that earlier developed over southeast NY
has evolved into a small bowing segment (still with supercell
characteristics) across southwest MA, and has a history of producing
wind damage, and also a 56 kt gust near Westfield, MA (KBAF). 2-hour
pressure falls are relatively maximized near/east of this storm, and
it will likely persist as it moves quickly eastward across a
moderately buoyant and favorably sheared environment. Damaging winds
will likely be the primary hazard, though a brief tornado or two
will be possible, given the presence of modestly curved low-level
hodographs (with effective SRH in excess of 150 m2/s2 per VWPs from
KGYX and KBOX).
Elsewhere from CT into southeast NH/southwest ME, storm coverage has
substantially increased over the last hour, along/ahead of a
eastward-moving cold front. Evolution into a larger-scale QLCS
appears to be underway, with a damaging-wind threat expected to
spread eastward into late afternoon. With favorable low-level and
deep-layer shear in place, some tornado potential cannot be ruled
out within any embedded supercells, as well as with any stronger
discrete cells that can be maintained ahead of the primary
convective line. Isolated hail potential will also continue with any
persistent supercell structures.
