   ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
   NEW YORK...

   ...SUMMARY...
   Thunderstorms, associated with a tornado and isolated wind-damage
   threat, are expected today across parts of the Northeast. The
   greatest tornado risk will be over southwest and south-central New
   York. An isolated wind-damage threat is also expected to develop
   across parts of New Mexico and west Texas.

   ...Northeast...
   The remnants of Beryl will move east-northeastward into the lower
   Great Lakes and central Appalachians today, as an upper-level trough
   moves across the Great Lakes region. At the surface, a low will move
   into western New York, as a warm front advances slowly northward
   into west-central and central New York. It appears that a band of
   cells will move across southern and central New York this morning,
   with another band forming in the afternoon and moving through the
   same general area. 

   Surface winds near and just to the south of the front will be backed
   toward the east-southeast, enhancing directional shear in the
   boundary layer. This is evident on the RAP forecast sounding at 20Z
   for Syracuse, NY, which has 0-3 km storm-relative helicity around
   350 m2/s2. This forecast sounding also has 0-6 km shear near 50
   knots with a substantial amount of speed shear in the low to
   mid-levels. MLCAPE just to the south of the warm front is forecast
   to be in the 2000 to 2500 J/kg range with low-level lapse rates
   peaking near 7 C/km. This environment will likely be favorable for
   supercells and tornadoes. The greatest tornado threat will likely be
   within an east-to-west corridor from just southeast of Buffalo to
   just west of Albany. The tornado threat is expected to be maximized
   in the 18Z to 00Z temporal window. 

   The stronger thunderstorms near and to the south of the warm front
   will also likely have a wind-damage threat. By late afternoon,
   convection is forecast to develop southward along a pre-frontal
   trough from central Pennsylvania into central Virginia. These storms
   could be associated with isolated severe gusts.

   ...New Mexico/West Texas...
   A relatively moist airmass will be in place today across much of
   southern and central New Mexico, where surface dewpoints will likely
   range from the upper 40s to the mid 50s F. As surface temperatures
   warm, scattered thunderstorms will first develop in the mountains,
   and then later in the lower elevations. Forecast soundings across
   southern and central New Mexico suggest that SBCAPE will peak in the
   800 to 1200 J/kg range. The instability, along with nearly dry
   adiabatic temperature profiles, will support a potential for
   marginally severe gusts.
