    Areas affected...Eastern Virginia and far northeast North Carolina

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 526...

    Valid 192021Z - 192215Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 526
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The threat for damaging/severe winds will become
    increasingly concentrated across eastern Virginia over the next
    several hours.

    DISCUSSION...A mixture of semi-discrete cells and convective
    clusters continue to evolve across central VA and northern NC, and
    have a history of sporadic wind damage and small hail. Recent GOES
    IR imagery and MRMS vertically integrated liquid/echo top data
    continue to show transient, but intense, convective cores developing
    across the region as storms move into, or develop within, a very
    buoyant environment. Recent RAP mesoanalysis estimates suggest
    MLCAPE has increased to 2000-3000 J/kg across eastern VA as
    temperatures climb into the upper 80s and low 90s with low-level
    lapse rates between 7-7.5 C/km. The trajectories of ongoing cells
    and clusters suggests that storm interactions/convergence will
    become increasingly likely across eastern VA within this CAPE
    maximum over the next several hours. As this occurs, the favorable thermodynamic environment should support an uptick in storm coverage
    along with increasing probability for damaging downburst winds and
    perhaps small hail.
