STORM2K

Rare to see something so significant in that region, but it is serious for millions of people.

Possible strong tornado near Damascus, MD right now based on radar.

Debris balls on radar, although no ground truth yet.

It seems the best conditions are north of DC along the warm front. The VA cells are struggling for the most part.

What I would do at 2000Z:

* Hatch the 10 and 15 in MD/S PA/extreme E VA near the warm front.

* Expand the MDT north and east (15H tornado), and pull a bit of the southern end (south of DC), reducing it to 10 not hatched in northern VA

CONCERNING...TORNADO WATCH 332...

VALID 011935Z - 012030Z

THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 332 CONTINUES.

SUMMARY...COLD FRONT WILL SPREAD INTO THE WRN PORTIONS OF WW 332
SHORTLY WITH AN INCREASED RISK FOR SEVERE TSTMS. PRE-FRONTAL
ISOLATED SUPERCELLS SHOULD LINGER ALONG ERN EDGE OF WW 332.

DISCUSSION...FRONTAL CONVECTION IS PROGRESSING EWD AT ROUGHLY
25-30KT AND IS CRESTING THE APPALACHIANS AS IT MOVES INTO THE WRN
PARTS OF WW 332. THIS ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY INCREASE IN INTENSITY AS
IT APPROACHES CNTRL PORTIONS OF THE WATCH DUE TO MORE FAVORABLE
THERMODYNAMIC ENVIRONMENT CHARACTERIZED BY 1500-2000 J/KG MUCAPE.
GIVEN THE CURRENT SPEED OF THE COLD FRONT IT SHOULD APPROACH THE
ERN-MOST PART OF THE WATCH AROUND 23-00Z TIME FRAME. TORNADO THREAT
REMAINS HIGHEST WITH PRE-FRONTAL SUPERCELLS.

THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 333 CONTINUES.

SUMMARY...TORNADO THREAT CONTINUES IN ASSOCIATION WITH ONGOING
SUPERCELL ACTIVITY.

DISCUSSION...NUMEROUS DISCRETE SUPERCELLS HAVE EVOLVED ACROSS THE
WARM SECTOR FROM PORTIONS OF NC...NWD INTO MD. THIS NRN ACTIVITY IS
COINCIDENT WITH ADVANCING WARM FRONT THAT NOW STRETCHES FROM BEDFORD
COUNTY PA...SEWD INTO CNTRL DE NEAR DOV. SEVERAL OF THE DISCRETE
SUPERCELLS HAVE EXHIBITED TORNADIC CHARACTERISTICS AS THEY LIFT NEWD
WITH ONE LONGER-LIVED UPDRAFT IN PARTICULAR NOW CROSSING THE WARM
FRONT OVER BALTIMORE COUNTY IN MD. NRN SUPERCELLS SHOULD ENCOUNTER
SOMEWHAT HIGHER LOW LEVEL HELICITY ALONG THE WARM FRONT WHICH MAY
ENHANCE THE TORNADIC POTENTIAL WHILE WITHIN THIS ZONE.

HIGHER THETA-E AIR MASS SHOULD GRADUALLY RETURN INTO SERN PA/DE AND
SWRN NJ OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. SUPERCELL ACTIVITY WILL INCREASE
AS THIS BOUNDARY ADVANCES NWD.

FRONTAL SQUALL LINE SHOULD APPROACH THE WRN-MOST PART OF WW 333 BY
00Z AND AN ENHANCED DAMAGING WIND THREAT MAY ENSUE WITH ASSOCIATED
CONVECTION.

WARM FRONT MOVING SLOWLY NNEWD. EFFECTIVE SRH OF 200-300 M2/S2 FROM
NRN VA INTO NRN MD/SERN PA AND NRN DE WILL CONTINUE TO PROMOTE A
POTENTIAL FOR TORNADIC SUPERCELL STRUCTURES AS HAVE BEEN DETECTED
THUS FAR ACROSS PARTS OF NRN VA INTO NRN MD. GIVEN THESE
FACTORS...A SIGNIFICANT TORNADO PROBABILITY AREA HAS BEEN ADDED.

...NERN NM TO SWRN KS AND WRN OK...

I have a weird feeling about this, having a Moderate risk area in this part of the country with 15% tornado hatched is very odd. I don't even remember anywhere in the plains last month having 15% hatched!! A 1 year anniversary redux of the Springfield MA tornado event? This general area just had a severe event last Tuesday (a Moderate risk further north). Since May did not deliver, Equilibrium is going to be rough for June maybe.

There was 5 tornado warnings at once before 5:00 pm EDT. Again, don't recall May having more than that level at one time.

Off-Topic: I don't know why the state abbreviation for Maryland is MD...it just doesn't seem right.

Now 8 tornado warnings after having 1 just minutes ago!!!!! I now consider that full tornado outbreak mode...for the east coast.

There was a tornado mini-outbreak (and many others rotating including funnel clouds) one week ago even farther north though...maybe the Northeast is going to get all the severe this season...

MAYBE the northern area has the best tornado threat? Shear is greatest there...
