    Areas affected...eastern Ohio...southwest Pennsylvania...and western
    West Virginia

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 81...

    Valid 030042Z - 030215Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 81 continues.

    SUMMARY...There is a continued threat for tornadoes through the
    evening within tornado watch 81.

    DISCUSSION...A cluster of storms with embedded supercells extends
    from east-central Ohio into southern Ohio. Shear ahead of these
    storms is very favorable with nearly 100% streamwise vorticity in
    the lowest 1 km at the RLX and PBZ VWP. Instability is the primary
    limiting factor with dewpoints only in the upper 50s to low 60s and temperatures in the low to mid-60s. However, despite the limited
    buoyancy, brief tornadoes have been present with several of these
    storms and a similar threat will continue into the late evening.
    Shear will increase further as the low-level jet intensifies which
    will likely maintain the threat into the early overnight hours.
