    Mesoscale Discussion 0587
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0105 PM CDT Thu May 31 2018

    Areas affected...southern Indiana...northern Kentucky and southwest
    Ohio

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely

    Valid 311805Z - 311930Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

    SUMMARY...A damaging wind threat will continue across Severe
    Thunderstorm Watch 136 and persist downstream toward parts of
    northern KY and southwest OH. A downstream watch will be needed
    soon.

    DISCUSSION...The mature bow echo currently tracking east-northeast
    at around 45 kt across southern IN and northern KY will move out of
    Severe Thunderstorm Watch 136 by around 19z. A severe threat is
    expected to persist downstream into parts of northern KY and
    southwest OH and a new watch may be needed downstream.

    Moderate instability exists across parts of northern KY into
    southwest OH downstream of the current watch. However, some
    uncertainty exists, at least across northern KY, due to earlier
    cluster of storms across the Bluegrass region. These storms have
    resulted in a weak cold pool in the LEX to JKL vicinity and this may
    inhibit severe potential across parts of the area. Furthermore, deep
    layer shear is rather weak and lapse rates decrease with eastward
    extent. However, rich moisture across the region and temperatures
    warming into the mid to upper 80s will promote continued
    destabilization ahead of the approaching bow echo. Some threat for
    damaging wind and perhaps small hail likely will persist for several
    hours and move out of WW 136 into southwest OH/northern KY and a
    downstream watch will likely be needed soon.
