Areas affected...portions of Maine
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 281745Z - 281915Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent
SUMMARY...Isolated strong thunderstorms producing gusty winds and
hail to near 1 inch diameter are possible this afternoon.
DISCUSSION...Isolated convection is deepening across parts of
western Maine early this afternoon in an area of low-level
convergence. Stronger heating in cloud breaks has occurred over this
area, and dewpoints in the mid 60s F are supporting modest
destabilization. Vertical shear suggest marginal supercells will be
possible, though weak instability will largely limit severe
potential. Nevertheless, cool temperatures aloft and elongated
hodographs imply hail will be possible with the stronger cores, in
addition to strong gusts around 45-60 mph. Isolated coverage and the
marginal nature of the severe risk will preclude watch issuance.
