ZCZC SPCSWOMCD ALL ACUS11 KWNS 150123 SPC MCD 150123 OHZ000-INZ000-150230- Mesoscale Discussion 0247 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0823 PM CDT Thu Mar 14 2024 Areas affected...Southwest into central Ohio Concerning...Tornado Watch 44... Valid 150123Z - 150230Z The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 44 continues. SUMMARY...Tornado risk will be maximized in central into parts of southwestern Ohio with storms that can persist despite a weakening thermodynamic environment. DISCUSSION...Supercell storms in west-central/central Ohio continue southeastward. Increasing CINH has begun to have an effect as these storms have become slightly more disorganized in the last 30 minutes. Surface winds in the vicinity of Columbus remain backed and the TCMH VAD profile shows ample low-level hodograph curvature. The main question will be how organized storms will be as they encounter the remaining favorable environment. Large to very large hail and tornadoes will continue to be a threat so long as storms can persist over the next 1-2 hours. ..Wendt.. 03/15/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
