    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 226...

    Valid 052256Z - 060030Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 226
    continues.

    SUMMARY...A line of thunderstorms migrating into northwestern parts
    of WW 226 may produce strong to severe winds and isolated hail,
    though it is not clear how long or far downstream this threat will
    persist.

    DISCUSSION...Reflectivity and velocity data from KCLE shows an
    organized, but compact, convective band developing across
    central/north-central OH. Wind velocities between 1-1.2 km above
    radar level were recently sampled at 35-45 knots, which suggests
    winds capable of producing damaging winds are likely embedded within
    the band. Environmentally, this line is on the periphery of any
    appreciable buoyancy and continues to migrate away from the better
    low-level moisture. However, a 35 knot 0-3 km wind shear vector
    sampled by the nearby KCLE VWP is nearly orthogonal to the line, and
    strong ascent associated with a vorticity maximum/shortwave trough
    aloft will continue to provide ascent and some degree of mid-level cooling/destabilization in the vicinity of the line. Consequently,
    this line may pose a damaging/severe wind and isolated hail threat
    into north-central OH. Eventually, diminishing buoyancy with
    northwest extent will lead to the demise of the band so downstream
    watch issuance is not expected (though local watch expansions have
    been made), but exactly when this occurs remains somewhat unclear.
