    Areas affected...portions of eastern IN into central OH

    Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely=20

    Valid 171550Z - 171715Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent

    SUMMARY...Severe potential will increase over the next 1-2 hours
    across parts of eastern Indiana into western Ohio. All severe
    hazards will be possible and a tornado watch will likely be needed
    in the next hour.

    DISCUSSION...Heating into the upper 60s to low 70s and dewpoints in
    the low 60s is resulting in modest instability (MLCAPE up to 1000
    J/kg). Effective shear magnitudes greater than 40 kt will support
    organized convection, with supercells and some small line segments
    possible. Damaging gusts to 65 mph and large hail to 1.5 inches in
    diameter will be possible with this activity. Additionally, some
    backing of low-level flow is possible, especially into parts of Ohio
    this afternoon. Forecast and regional VWP data indicates enlarged
    low-level hodographs. Steepening low-level lapse rates and
    increasing 0-3 km MLCAPE with time amid favorable low-level shear
    will support tornado potential in addition to the wind/hail risk. A
    tornado watch will likely be needed within the next hour.
