Mesoscale Discussion 2042
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0833 PM CDT Thu Aug 24 2023

   Areas affected...Northern Indiana...Northern Ohio...western
   Pennsylvania...western New York

   Concerning...Severe potential...Severe Thunderstorm Watch likely 

   Valid 250133Z - 250300Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

   SUMMARY...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch downstream of WW656 is likely
   shortly.

   DISCUSSION...A broken line of severe storms continues to move
   southward out of Michigan and across Lake Erie. Consensus within
   hi-res guidance is for this line to continue to track southward into
   portions of northern Indiana, northern Ohio, western Pennsylvania,
   western New York within the next couple of hours. Downstream of this
   line, there is a gradient of MLCAPE around 1500-3500 J/kg and deep
   layer shear 35-45 kts. The environment will continue to be
   supportive of severe storms and risk of damaging winds along with
   isolated embedded circulations and a tornado or two. A downstream
   watch will be needed shortly.

What did you think of that lightning last night?

 

Uhh... more please! :) It was enough to get my 4 year old to run into our room. I wish I'd been able to stay awake for the whole storm, it sounded really windy too. 

Hoping tonight will be a repeat, especially with such a high dewpoint (74 degrees at 10pm!). Where did you see the storm from? I'm up near Lewis Center.
