A Severe Thunderstorm Watch issuance is likely. DISCUSSION...Initial sustained storm development is underway across southwest NY, with scattered agitated CU over northeast PA and southeast NY. A plume of moderate buoyancy will expand eastward from western/central PA and southwest NY, aiding in strengthening convective intensity as storms mature. A strong mid-level westerly jetlet atop already veered and weak low-level winds will yield hodograph elongation. Combined with weak low-level ascent, the setup should support generally semi-discrete cells with transient mid-level updraft rotation. As such, isolated severe hail will be possible and the overall coverage of the convective wind threat might be subdued until late-afternoon clustering becomes more probable. ..Grams/Mosier.. 07/03/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
