.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
As of 1100 AM EDT Monday...Bottom line it will be an active day
with strong to severe storms expected this afternoon. Early
morning convection exiting the area as expected and satellite
imagery shows plenty of clearing to allow for highs in the mid
80s to lower 90s. Dew points already well into the 60s and this
will lead to CAPE values this afternoon in the 1500-2500 J/kg
range. Sufficient deep layer shear is already established over
the area and will only get stronger as the day progresses.
Expecting convection to develop along pre-frontal trough in the
vicinity of the Saint Lawrence Valley and western portions of
the northern Adirondacks of New York. Storms will quickly become
organized and move into more favorable instability to push
storms into the strong to severe category. With unidirectional
shear looking at wind damage as the main threat, but with all
the instability could see some isolated storms forming and
producing large hail. Frequent lightning and heavy downpours
will also accompany the storms as they move east into the
Champlain Valley and the remainder of Vermont.
