    Areas affected...portions of northern IN

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 142049Z - 142215Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...Scattered storms may undergo brief intensification with a
    risk for isolated damaging wind gusts into this evening. Given
    expected sparse severe coverage, a watch is not likely.

    DISCUSSION...As of 2030 UTC, regional radar imagery showed a cluster
    of thunderstorms ongoing along a cold front across west-central IN.
    Ahead of the front, weak destabilization (500-1000 J/kg of MLCAPE)
    from cloud breaks may support a brief uptick in convective intensity
    over the next couple of hours. Regional model soundings show
    deep-layer shear profiles remain relatively strong around 40-50 kts.
    Shear remains mostly parallel to the cold front, supporting a linear
    mode behind the wind shift. However, the southern most sections of
    the cluster, including a weakly rotating cell over Parke County, IN,
    appear to be ahead of the cooler air suggesting relatively greater
    potential for damaging wind gusts. Overall hi-res guidance remains
    uncertain on convective evolution casting considerable doubt on the
    coverage of any severe weather. However, given the strong shear and
    sufficient buoyancy, a few isolated damaging wind gusts cannot be
    ruled out.
