Areas affected...Northern Virginia...Maryland...and the D.C. Metro

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

Valid 132043Z - 132315Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...Thunderstorm chances will continue to increase through
early this evening across portions of northern VA and MD. A threat
of localized damaging wind gusts exceeding 60 mph appears possible.

DISCUSSION...The latest visible satellite and radar imagery suggest
moist convection is beginning to deepen near a stationary boundary
draped west to east across northern VA and central MD, with ongoing thunderstorms beginning to move eastward off the higher terrain.
This boundary will remain a focus for thunderstorm development
through early this evening as a very subtle mid-level shortwave
perturbation approaches from the west, although thunderstorm
coverage should generally remain at or below 40%. Daytime heating
this afternoon, combined with a moist boundary layer, are
contributing to a north-to-south axis of low to moderate instability
nudging into the DC Metro. Although weaker flow aloft should limit
overall thunderstorm organization, steep low-level lapse rates of
8-8.5 C/km and DCAPE ~1300 J/kg could support an isolated damaging
downburst or two. Given the isolated nature of the threat, a severe
weather watch is not expected at this time.
