    Mesoscale Discussion 1824
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    1129 PM CDT Sun Aug 02 2026

    Areas affected...Eastern PA into parts of the Hudson Valley and
    vicinity

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 030429Z - 030630Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...A localized wind-damage and brief-tornado threat cannot be
    ruled out into the early overnight hours.

    DISCUSSION...A long-lived but generally sub-severe storm cluster is
    currently moving toward eastern PA, with another area of convection
    gradually developing from eastern PA toward the Hudson Valley,
    within a low-level warm-advection regime associated with a mid/upper
    trough extending from Quebec into the OH/TN Valleys and Southeast. A
    surface low is centered near Lake Erie, with a surface trough
    extending south-southwestward from the surface low into the
    central/southern Appalachians. The surface low/trough will gradually
    shift eastward into the overnight hours, while the preceding
    low-level theta-e advection will expand across the Hudson Valley
    into parts of southern New England.

    Lapse rates are generally poor across the region (generally 6 C/km
    or less through most of the troposphere), which will continue to
    limit updraft intensity. However, rich boundary-layer moisture and
    gradually strengthening low-level SRH (as depicted in regional VWPs
    from KDIX and KOKX) may allow for transient storm organization and
    rotation into the early overnight hours, with a localized threat of
    a brief tornado and/or localized damaging gusts.
