    Areas affected...Southwestern Lower Michigan into far northern
    Indiana

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 546...547...

    Valid 091857Z - 092030Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 546, 547
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Wind damage potential will increase along the
    southern/eastern Lake Michigan shore over the next 1-2 hours.

    DISCUSSION...A linear segment is nearing the eastern Lake Michigan
    shoreline. The most prominent feature within this line is a small
    mesovortex west of Ottawa County Michigan. While this feature may
    locally enhance wind damage potential, the airmass ahead of it has
    struggled to destabilize this afternoon owing to cloud cover.
    Temperatures far southwest Lower Michigan and northern Indiana are
    warmer. These locations should have a locally greater wind damage
    threat given the steeper low-level lapse rates and larger overall
    buoyancy. Further extensions in area/time of WW 546 may be needed
    into northwest Indiana given current convective trends.
