    Areas affected...eastern Mid Atlantic

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 109...

    Valid 152257Z - 160030Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 109
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The risk for damaging gusts and hail continues. Ongoing
    clusters of storms will gradually shift southeast through the
    evening.

    DISCUSSION...As of 2355 UTC, regional radar showed multiple clusters
    of storms, and occasional supercell structures, ongoing across parts
    of central and eastern VA. The environment ahead of these clusters
    remains broadly favorable for damaging winds and hail given 500-1000
    J/kg of MLCAPE and 35-40 kt of effective shear. Recent hi-res
    guidance suggest the ongoing clusters will continue to track
    east/southeast this with gradual upscale growth. Damaging gusts
    appear to be the most likely hazard with storm interactions and
    relatively modest boundary-layer moisture present over parts of
    eastern VA. However, severe hail should still remain possible,
    especially with any supercellular elements, given robust mid-level
    lapse rates of 7-8 C/km. The strongest activity should remain
    focused over the southern half of the Watch area, though more
    isolated development will remain possible on trailing outflow and
    over the higher terrain in western VA/WV through the next few hours.
