SPC MD 801
MD 0801 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH LIKELY FOR PORTIONS OF THE MID-ATLANTIC

Mesoscale Discussion 0801
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1123 AM CDT Wed May 20 2026

Areas affected...portions of the Mid-Atlantic

Concerning...Severe potential...Severe Thunderstorm Watch likely 

Valid 201623Z - 201800Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

SUMMARY...Widely scattered thunderstorms will pose a risk for
damaging wind gusts and isolated large hail this afternoon and
evening. A Severe Thunderstorm Watch will be needed soon.

DISCUSSION...Latest surface observations depict a cold front
extending from central New York southwestward through north-central
and western Pennsylvania into southeast Ohio. Ahead of this cold
front, temperatures are warming into the 90s across portions of the
Mid-Atlantic, with surface dewpoints in the low/mid 60s F. Continued
heating of this air mass is supporting 1000-1500 J/kg MLCAPE, with
further destabilization anticipated through the afternoon hours.

Recent satellite/radar imagery has shown increasing convective
coverage ahead of the aforementioned cold front as remaining
inhibition is eroded. With stronger mid/upper-level flow remaining
displaced to the northwest, only modest effective shear is analyzed
across the region (generally 20-30+ kts per latest mesoanalysis).
This will be sufficient to support updraft organization with
multicells, and perhaps marginal supercells, likely. Steep low-level
lapse rates, well-mixed boundary layer profiles, and surface
dewpoint depressions exceeding 20-25 F will promote the potential
for damaging wind gusts, particularly with any more organized
clusters that develop. Isolated instances of large hail may also
accompany any more robust updrafts despite weak mid-level lapse
rates (as sampled by the 12z PIT/IAD observed soundings). A Severe
Thunderstorm Watch will be needed soon.

SPC Severe Thunderstorm Watch 234
WW 234 SEVERE TSTM DC MD PA VA WV CW 201640Z - 210000Z

URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 234
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1240 PM EDT Wed May 20 2026

The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a

* Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of 
  District Of Columbia
  Maryland
  Southern Pennsylvania
  Northern Virginia
  Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia
  Coastal Waters

* Effective this Wednesday afternoon and evening from 1240 PM
  until 800 PM EDT.

* Primary threats include...
  Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph likely
  Isolated large hail events to 1 inch in diameter possible

SUMMARY...Thunderstorms will form and spread eastward across the
watch area this afternoon in a hot and unstable air mass. The
strongest cells will pose a risk of damaging wind gusts and hail.

The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 55
statute miles north and south of a line from 95 miles west southwest
of Martinsburg WV to 45 miles east of Harrisburg PA. For a complete
depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update
(WOUS64 KWNS WOU4).

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area.
Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening
weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible
warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce
tornadoes.

&&

AVIATION...A few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to
1 inch. Extreme turbulence and surface wind gusts to 60 knots. A few
cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 500. Mean storm motion vector
26030.
