    Areas affected...Eastern KY...Western WV...Southeast OH

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 222214Z - 230015Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...A line of strong thunderstorms will affect parts of the
    Upper Ohio Valley this evening, with a risk of locally
    gusty/damaging winds. The environment is only marginally favorable
    for severe storms, so a watch is unlikely at this time.

    DISCUSSION...Recent radar imagery shows an increasingly organized
    line of thunderstorms extending from Highland County OH southward to
    Owsley County KY. These storms are moving at 30-35 knots, and have
    shown a history of locally strong wind gusts and a few trees down.=20
    While this activity will likely persist for several hours this
    evening, the pre-storm environment shows considerable mid-level
    moisture, weak lapse rates, and limited heating. MUCAPE values are
    only in the 700-1200 J/kg range, and low-level shear is modest. All
    of these variable suggest that the overall severe threat is marginal
    and is unlikely to warrant a watch. Nevertheless, we will continue
    to monitor trends and re-evaluate as needed.
