Mesoscale Discussion 2274
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0342 PM CDT Wed Sep 09 2026
Areas affected...portions of northern Ohio into northwestern
Pennsylvania and far western New York
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 665...
Valid 092042Z - 092215Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 665
continues.
SUMMARY...A few damaging gusts may accompany the stronger storms
over the next few hours. A brief tornado cannot be ruled out.
DISCUSSION...Multicells, transient supercells, and short line
segments have become established along/ahead of a surface trough.
These storms are overspreading a boundary layer characterized by
80s/70s F surface temperatures/dewpoints, where 1000-1500 J/kg
MLCAPE is in place, along with 30-40 kts of effective bulk shear.
The current thinking is that these storms will maintain their
intensity and continue to pose a risk for a few damaging gusts. A
brief tornado also cannot be ruled out, especially for any storms
that anchor on the baroclinic boundary, roughly established along
the OH/PA/NY border area.
