    Areas affected...Southern half of OH...northern WV Panhandle...and
    western PA

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 115...

    Valid 222236Z - 230030Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 115
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The greatest severe-weather threat through the early-mid
    evening will be from central, southern and southeast Ohio into
    western Pennsylvania, with strong-severe wind gusts producing tree
    damage, and hail the primary risks. A few counties east of WW 115
    may need to be added to this watch, as the environment there has
    become moderately unstable.

    DISCUSSION...At 2215Z, mosaic radar imagery showed a broken band of
    strong to severe storms extending from Butler County, PA southwest
    into central OH (Pickaway County), with isolated storms northwest
    and southwest of the line in west-central to southwest OH. The
    broken band of storms is located along a cold front advancing to the south-southeast through the Ohio Valley region. An increase in
    surface temperatures occurred across western PA late this afternoon
    as clouds shifted east allowing for more sunshine. This coupled
    with surface dew points in the mid-upper 60s boosted instability
    into the moderate range. MLCAPE across western PA to central and
    southern OH is 1000-1500 J/kg. This combined with effective bulk
    shear of 35-45 kt maintains the likelihood for storm organization,
    while deep westerly winds will continue to favor mainly linear
    structures, producing strong-severe wind gusts.

    A few counties immediately east and southeast of WW 115 (within WFO
    PBZ County Warning Area) may need to be added to this watch, as the
    environment into those areas has become supportive of severe storms.
    The timing of storms reaching the east and southeast of WW 115
    should be between 00-01Z. As the boundary layer begins to stabilize
    with the loss of daytime heating, a downstream watch is not
    expected.

    Areas affected...West-central and Northwest Texas...South-central
    Oklahoma

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 117...

    Valid 012025Z - 012230Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 117
    continues.

    SUMMARY...A severe threat is likely to continue across northwest
    Texas and south-central Oklahoma over the next few hours. Large
    hail, isolated wind damage and a brief tornado will be possible.

    DISCUSSION...Latest surface analysis shows a washed out frontal
    boundary from north-central Oklahoma extending southwestward into
    southwestern Oklahoma. An outflow boundary, from last night's
    storms, intersects the front in southwest Oklahoma. The storms in
    south-central Oklahoma are located on the cool side of the outflow
    boundary where surface temperatures are generally around 70 F. In
    spite of this, moderate instability is in place across south-central
    Oklahoma where the RAP is estimating MLCAPE values from 2000 to 2500
    J/kg. This combined with moderate deep-layer shear evident on the
    Oklahoma City WSR-88D VWP and 700-500 mb lapse rates near 8.0 C/km,
    will be favorable for supercells with large hail. Supercells may
    also produce isolated wind damage and perhaps a brief tornado.

    Further southwest into northwest Texas, a cluster of strong to
    severe thunderstorms is ongoing just to the southeast of the front
    in a very moist and unstable airmass. Surface temperatures are in
    the mid 80s F and the RAP is estimating MLCAPE to be in the 4000 to
    4500 J/kg range. This thermodynamic environment will be very
    favorable for supercells with large hail. Hailstones of greater than
    2 inches will be possible with the strongest of updrafts. Isolated
    wind damage and a brief tornado will also be possible.
