   Areas affected...Central Appalachians

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 191...

   Valid 292210Z - 292345Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 191
   continues.

   SUMMARY...Damaging winds are expected ahead of a squall line this
   evening.

   DISCUSSION...Mature MCS is progressing across the upper Ohio Valley
   early this evening. Leading edge of this complex is surging east in
   excess of 35kt and damaging winds have been noted along the leading
   squall line. Latest diagnostic data suggests a narrow corridor of
   higher instability extends across the eastern WV/MD Panhandle, and
   0-3km lapse rates are fairly steep. This MCS should continue east
   and the current watch may need to be extended to account for the
   this activity spreading beyond ww191.
