Areas affected...Central/Eastern KY...Far Southern OH

Concerning...Tornado Watch 327...

Valid 270442Z - 270615Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 327 continues.

SUMMARY...Threat for damaging gusts and line-embedded QLCS tornadoes
remains possible.

DISCUSSION...Organized convective line continues to push eastward
across central KY at around 40 kt. At the this speed, the line
should move into eastern KY at around 0530Z and to the edge of
Tornado Watch 327 around 0730 to 0800Z. Updrafts have largely
maintained their intensity over the past hour, which is a testament
to the organized character of the line given the reduced buoyancy it
has encountered. Vertical shear remains strong and the line is
oriented favorably for continued forward propagation. Damaging wind
gusts will be the primary threat within this line as it continues
eastward. The JKL VAD continues to show strong low-level shear with
notable veering with height, suggesting that some line-embedded QLCS
tornadoes are still possible, particularly in any surge within the
line. One such surge may be possible soon with the strong updraft on
the southern end of the line over south-central KY.
