Valid 212043Z - 212215Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 509 continues. SUMMARY...The severe weather threat will continue through the afternoon and into the evening. DISCUSSION...Storms across Virginia and into the DelMarVa have mostly lacked structure thus far with only occasional stronger multi-cell storms. As height falls overspread the area this evening, expect more robust convection with a greater damaging wind threat and an eventual line of storms along or ahead of the cold front, advances east. In addition, strengthening mid-level and low-level flow will assist in storm organization, further supporting the threat. ..Bentley.. 07/21/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

\ Mesoscale Discussion 1688 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1115 AM CDT Tue Jul 21 2026 Areas affected...northeast Kentucky...northern West Virginia...and southern Ohio Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely Valid 211615Z - 211815Z Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent SUMMARY...The severe weather threat will increase this afternoon across southern Ohio and northern Kentucky into West Virginia. DISCUSSION...A cluster of storms in southeast Ohio will likely continue east-southeast into a more unstable airmass along a differential heating zone developing across northern West Virginia. Damaging winds will likely be the primary threat with this cluster. Additional storms are expected to strengthen farther southwest through the afternoon with sufficient shear for some supercell structures. Damaging winds will likely be the main threat with this activity with some large hail potential. In addition, a tornado or two is also possible, especially as the low-level jet strengthens this afternoon/evening. A watch will likely be needed within the next 1 to 2 hours to address the threat from the ongoing activity and any additional storms which develop. ..Bentley/Mosier.. 07/21/2026 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
