Continue reading for today's outlook from the National Weather Service's Storm Prediction Center. -------------------- National Severe Storm Outlook THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS FAR EASTERN OHIO...THE WEST VIRGINIA PANHANDLE...AND PARTS OF WESTERN/CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA SUMMARY Scattered severe thunderstorms appear likely this afternoon and evening across parts of the Ohio Valley into the Mid-Atlantic, particularly from far eastern Ohio into central Pennsylvania. Large to very large hail and damaging winds should be the main threats, but a tornado or two may also occur. 20z Update - Ohio Valley to the Mid-Atlantic Overall the previous forecast remains on track. Only minor adjustments were made to the southern extent of the level 2 of 5 (Slight) risk area in KY. This adjustment was made based on latest trends in timing/intensity derived from CAMs and RAP forecast soundings across the southwest extent of the severe risk area. While limited low-level moisture is expected to temper instability across the region, the 18z RAOB from PIT showed the presence of very steep mid and low-level lapse rates amid strong unidirectional vertical wind profiles. This environment should support scattered damaging gusts, and large to very large hail from any initially discrete supercell structures.
