1630Z SPC Outlook keeps everything pretty much the same. Maybe a very slight shift SE? If that.

...INDIANA NEWD INTO SRN NEW ENGLAND...

STRONG HEATING WILL PERSIST OVER MUCH OF THE REGION...WITH SEVERE

THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT LIKELY TO INITIATE FROM WRN PA SWWD ACROSS

OH AND IND BY EARLY/MID AFTERNOON. INITIATION WILL FURTHER BE

ENHANCED BY SEVERAL VORTICITY MAXIMA MOVING THROUGH THE FLOW. MUCAPE

IN EXCESS OF 3000 J/KG...ALONG WITH 40+ KT LOW TO MIDLEVEL MEAN

WINDS...SHOULD ALLOW FOR RAPID UPSCALE GROWTH OF AND MERGING OF

DEVELOPING STORM CELLS INTO LINES CAPABLE OF DAMAGING WINDS AND

HAIL. AS THESE STORMS CONTINUE EWD ACROSS THE PA/NEW ENGLAND SFC

BOUNDARIES...THEY MAY EXHIBIT ROTATION WITH PARTICULARLY DAMAGING

SWATHS OF WINDS ESPECIALLY WITH ANY BOWHEAD/MESO-LOW.

Looks like the 5% tornado risk is larger and expanded westward further into PA

Agree a textbook derecheo is unlikely but look for some wind across the MDT risk area. I’d want to see the kind of instability forecast down in the Mid Atlantic. However the dynamics are up in Ohio/PA and later into the Tri-State. Southern Ohio to central PA might have the extreme instability, but the morning rain deludes extreme instability toward the Tri-State. Fortunately for storm lovers the atmosphere will become unstable again across the Tri-State, just not extreme, and smaller scale features may offer wind potential for the area.

It is just potential right now as of 12:30. Winds are veering well north into New England, but visible satellite hints the outflow boundary is still down in eastern PA and central NJ thanks to morning rain. Models forecast winds trying to back a bit again from the immediate Tri-State into southern New England late this afternoon as the upper-level wave approaches. If some thunderstorms can become line-segments ahead of the main line, perhaps in southern New York and northern New Jersey, the lingering outflow boundary could enhance them. Like the post leaning toward book-end and/or LEWPs over classic supercells.

How often does a nice outflow boundary retreat in the Northeast without new storms firing before Noon? Retreating outflow is one of my favorite setups in the Plains. Well, this is New York City. But last week proved NYC still knows how to party! Good luck and stay safe.

NAM is going to be way off from its predicted highs yesterday...the heat warnings for alot of NJ and PA will not come close to verifying.

Even today's 12z run then. Today's run has 94 degrees in NYC by 2pm and a high of 97 by 5pm.

Erosion of cloud cover is working its way east. The area should be predominantly sunny within the next hour and we should destabilize rapidly in the following hours well into the evening.

Unless we drastically warm in the next hour, NAM will severely bust on temps.

1pm temps:

LGA: 82

NYC: 80

JFK: 81

EWR: 85

TEB: 80

vs. today's 12z NAM for 1 hour from now:

We still have until 4-5 pm to warm so the ultimate highs may be delayed by an hour or two.

I think Uptons call for storms this afternoon is not going to work out - everything should be pushed back a few hours till after 5 PM at least - I would suspect SPC issues a watch for the area as soon as they see the T-storms start developing out in PA and moving east I would think the watch is issued after 3PM some time and starts about 5 PM - 7PM and runs till about 11 PM - 1 AM what does everyone else think ?

wonder how that factors into the storm potential ?(Temps being 10-15 degrees COOLER than forecast)

Temps will soar over the next several hours. Low 90s throughout our area will be common.
