Areas affected...Portions of southeastern WV into western VA

Concerning...Tornado Watch 74...

Valid 021612Z - 021715Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 74 continues.

SUMMARY...A compact, bowing cluster should gradually weaken as it
moves into western Virginia this afternoon. Downstream watch
issuance is not expected at this time.

DISCUSSION...It appears that the small, compact cluster/bow that has
produced multiple measured severe wind gusts and damage reports
across WV is slowly weakening as it encounters a less unstable and
increasingly hostile thermodynamic environment in far southeastern
WV and western VA. While strong/gusty winds and occasional damage
will remain possible in the short term given the cluster's continued
organization, downstream watch issuance is not currently expected
into western VA.
