    Mesoscale Discussion 2210

    Areas affected...southern Lower Michigan

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 030237Z - 030400Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Sporadic strong storms are possible across portions of
    southern Lower Michigan this evening. Hail and gusty winds could
    accompany the strongest cells.

    DISCUSSION...Isolated thunderstorms have developed this evening near
    a surface boundary/low-level convergence zone across southern Lower
    MI. A very moist/unstable airmass within moderate vertical shear may
    support sporadic strong to severe thunderstorms in the short term.
    Based on the 00z DTX showing modestly steep midlevel lapse rates and
    large elevated instability, hail will be possible with the strongest
    updrafts. Storm mode may limit a greater severe hail risk, as
    convective evolution should tend to be more linear given shear
    oriented along the initiating surface boundary. With loss of daytime
    heating, boundary layer stabilization will likely preclude
    surface-based storms, but locally strong gusts could occur. Overall,
    severe potential is expected to remain limited and a watch is not
    currently anticipated.
