    Areas affected...Portions of West Virginia and northern Virginia

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 032031Z - 032300Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Storms moving into West Virginia may pose a threat of
    severe weather this afternoon and evening. Convective trends will
    continue to be monitored, although a watch appears unlikely at this
    time.

    DISCUSSION...Despite midlevel height rises across the area,
    low-level warm-air advection continues to support thunderstorm
    development across eastern Kentucky. The storms are expected to
    continue moving eastward across West Virginia, though high clouds
    and poorer boundary-layer moisture (per 18Z RNK sounding) have
    limited destabilization. With low-level flow (and attendant warm
    advection) forecast to increase into the evening, there is a threat
    for the convection to persist. Given the sufficient low-level and
    deep-layer shear across the area, these storms will have the
    potential to produce damaging winds, hail, and a tornado. Trends
    will be monitored through the evening, but a watch appears to be
    unlikely at this time.
