August 5th Severe Weather Thread

Decided to start an individual thread for you guys for this one given the last one got enveloped within the general discussion...

...THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS ACROSS MUCH OF THE

NORTHEAST/MID-ATLANTIC STATES TO OH/TN VALLEYS...

...MUCH OF THE NORTHEAST/MID-ATLANTIC STATES AND OH/TN VALLEYS...

THE PRIMARY DEEP CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL ON SUNDAY WILL BE TIED TO THE

EAST-NORTHEASTWARD ADVANCEMENT OF A POTENT UPPER TROUGH...FROM THE

GREAT LAKES REGION EARLY SUNDAY TO QUEBEC/NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND BY

EARLY MONDAY. BROAD CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT WITH A MODERATELY STRONG

BELT OF WESTERLIES WILL OVERSPREAD MUCH OF THE REGION...BUT

ESPECIALLY THE UPPER OH VALLEY/NORTHEAST STATES INTO NEW ENGLAND

THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT.

WHILE IT IS CONCEIVABLE THAT EARLY DAY TSTMS AND REMNANT OUTFLOWS

COULD BE FACTORS...AN INCREASE/INTENSIFICATION OF TSTMS OTHERWISE

SEEMS PROBABLE BY EARLY AFTERNOON ALONG/AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT

INCLUDING PORTIONS OF NY/PA AND OTHER PARTS OF THE UPPER OH VALLEY

TO THE TN VALLEY. RELATIVELY HIGH MOISTURE CONTENT...STEEPENING LOW

LEVEL LAPSE RATES...AND MODERATE BUOYANCY /1000-3000 J PER KG

SBCAPE/ WILL ACCOUNT FOR STRONG/SUSTAINED STORMS WITHIN A WEAK TO

MODERATE VERTICAL SHEAR ENVIRONMENT. MULTICELLS/LINE SEGMENTS ARE

LIKELY WITH DAMAGING WINDS AS THE PRIMARY OVERALL HAZARD...BUT SOME

SUPERCELLS MAY BE POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY ACROSS PORTIONS OF NY/PA.

SEVERAL ORGANIZED SYSTEMS/CLUSTERS MAY ULTIMATELY EVOLVE BY LATE

AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING.

FARTHER SOUTH/SOUTHWEST...WITHIN A WEAKER SHEAR BUT MORE UNSTABLE

PRE-FRONTAL REGIME...SEVERE TSTMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE TN

VALLEY/MID-SOUTH AND PERHAPS OTHER PARTS OF THE SOUTHEAST STATES.

The LLJ is much more impressive then last weeks moderate risk event, and it appears that supercells could fire on the cold front from NY to W PA to E OH, could pose a fairly significant severe threat and tornado threat also, i think we could see a day 2 moderate risk

Doubt it. It's harder than you think to get a D2 moderate anywhere, let alone the Northeast. I'd like to see better deep layer shear, steeper mid level lapse rates and morning convection could also screw this up.
