...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE NORTHEAST...

...SUMMARY...
A few severe thunderstorms will linger across upstate New York into
northern Vermont this evening. Otherwise, isolated strong storms
remain possible for the next few hours across portions of the
southern Rockies region and middle Atlantic.

...Northeast...

Low-amplitude short-wave trough is ejecting northeast across
southeast ON/southern QC. Southern influence of this feature appears
to be partly responsible for ongoing convection over upstate NY.
Latest radar data suggests a few supercells persist along a corridor
from Hamilton County NY to southwest of BTV. This activity is
currently spreading across the primary instability axis
characterized by MLCAPE on the order of 1000 J/kg with strong shear
supportive of supercells. However, over the next few hours, loss of
daytime heating and downstream air mass not as buoyant, suggests
convection should begin to gradually decrease.

...Southern Rockies...

Scattered convection that developed across much of the southern
Rockies this afternoon has effectively overturned instability across
CO/NM. While gusty winds may continue with the strongest storms for
the next few hours, overall trends suggest the severe threat is
waning.
