Severe Weather Coordination Message #1 – Tuesday 7/10/18 Severe Weather Potential

Hello to all…

..Isolated to Scattered Strong to Severe Thunderstorms are possible today across interior Southern New England particularly Northern and West-Central Massachusetts and Northwest Connecticut. Strong to damaging winds, hail, frequent lightning and heavy rainfall with urban and poor drainage flooding are the main threats. The Storm Prediction Center (SPC) has placed this area in a marginal risk for severe weather. Timeframe for severe weather is between 4-8 PM today..
..SKYWARN Activation with Ops at NWS Boston/Norton are possible today to monitor the severe weather potential..

Heat and humidity, though not as significant as what was seen last week, will impact Southern New England today. A cold front will swing through the region later this afternoon and tonight. Heat and humidity will provide good instability and wind shear profiles are sufficient to produce isolated to scattered strong to severe thunderstorms across the area. The timeframe for the severe weather potential is between 4-8 PM and across interior Southern New England particularly in Western/Central and Northern Massachusetts and Northwest Connecticut where SPC has outlined a marginal risk for severe weather.

SKYWARN Activation with Ops at NWS Boston/Norton are possible today to monitor the severe weather potential. This will likely be the only complete coordination message on the severe weather potential. A shortened coordination message will be posted when time allows and Ops at NWS Boston/Norton are initiated. Below is the NWS Boston/Norton Hazardous Weather Outlook, Enhanced Hazardous Weather Outlook and SPC Day-1 Convective Outlook:
