Severe Weather Coordination Message #1 – Friday June 30th, 2017 Severe Weather Potential

Hello to all…

..Isolated to scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are likely this Friday afternoon and evening between 4-10 PM across interior Southern New England, Strong to damaging winds, hail, frequent lightning and urban and poor drainage flooding are the main threats. The Storm Prediction Center (SPC) has placed portions of Western New England in a marginal to slight risk of severe weather today..
..SKYWARN Activation with Ops at NWS Taunton will commence by 200-230 PM EDT for Friday’s severe weather potential..

At 1050 AM EDT Friday Morning, Doppler Radar showed a few showers moving through Southern New England with cloud cover over Massachusetts and Rhode Island. An area of clearing is working its way into Connecticut and Eastern New York. An impulse in the atmosphere will be moving eastward from East-Central New York and East-Central Pennsylvania and given clearing upstream there should be sufficient heating and destabilization along with marginally sufficient wind shear for isolated to scattered strong to severe thunderstorms particularly in Western and Central Massachusetts and Western and Central Connecticut but the threat could extend elsewhere in interior Southern New England. The headlines reflect thinking well for today presuming the heating and destabilization can take place as expected.

SKYWARN Activation with Ops at NWS Taunton will commence by 200-230 PM EDT for Friday’s severe weather potential. This will be the only coordination message as we shift into operations mode. Below is the SPC Day-1 Convective Outlook and the NWS Taunton Hazardous Weather Outlook and Experimental Enhanced Hazardous Weather Outlook:
