   Mesoscale Discussion 0334

   0627 PM CDT Mon Mar 31 2025

   Areas affected...Portions of eastern North Carolina and far
   southeastern Virginia

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 90...

   Valid 312327Z - 010100Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 90
   continues.

   SUMMARY...The risk of severe wind gusts (generally around 60 mph)
   continues to increase across portions of Severe Thunderstorm Watch
   90.

   DISCUSSION...Radar data from KRAX depicts recent intensification of
   a north/south-oriented line segment tracking east-northeastward at
   around 30 kt. The inflow for these storms is characterized by
   middle/upper 70s temperatures and lower 60s dewpoints beneath modest
   midlevel lapse rates (MLCAPE around 1000 J/kg). This, combined with
   around 40 kt of 0-6 km shear (per RAX VWP data), should support a
   continued risk of severe wind gusts (generally around 60 mph), given
   the linear mode/established cold pool. Trends are also being
   monitored for a possible downstream watch into southeastern
   Virginia.
