DISCUSSION...Temperatures have warmed rapidly in the wake of a warm front and mid-level clouds across eastern New York. With temperatures warming into the 70s to low 80s. However, coincident with this heating, low-level moisture has mixed-out substantially across central New York. There remains a favorable corridor with deeper moisture directly behind the front where sufficient instability may support some stronger storms with the potential for large hail. Damaging wind gusts may also be possible given the dry mid-levels and deeply mixed boundary later. Within the narrow corridor of greater instability directly behind the warm front, some stronger storms are possible given moderate instability and strong deep layer shear (60-70 knots per SPC mesoanalysis). The narrow corridor of the threat should keep strong storms somewhat isolated and therefore, a severe thunderstorm watch is unlikely. ..Bentley/Smith.. 05/08/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
