SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT AND RADAR SUMMARY
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHARLESTON WV
720 PM EDT FRI JUN 08 1990

...TORNADO WATCH FOR THE NORTHERN HALF OF WEST VIRGINIA UNTIL 10 PM
EDT...

A TORNADO WATCH CONTINUES IN EFFECT ACROSS THE NORTHERN PORTION OF
WEST VIRGINIA UNTIL 10 PM. DURING THE PAST SEVERAL HOURS STRONG
THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEEN RUMBLING ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN OHIO FROM
WEST TO EAST. SEVERE WEATHER HAS BEEN ACCOMPANYING MANY OF THESE
STORMS...INCLUDING SEVERAL TORNADOES. THE STORMS HAVE BEEN MOVING
TO THE EAST AT AROUND 40 MILES AN HOUR.

NO THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEEN OBSERVED IN WEST VIRGINIA FOR THE PAST
SEVERAL HOURS...EXCEPT IN THE NORTHERN PANHANDLE. SATELLITE PICTURES
AND RADAR REPORTS INDICATE THE THUNDERSTORMS OVER MUCH OF THE NORTHERN
HALF OF OHIO AND ALONG THE OHIO RIVER FROM NEAR LOUISVILLE TO THE WEST
AND SOUTHWEST THROUGH EXTREME SOUTHERN INDIANA AND WESTERN KENTUCKY.

MORE THUNDERSTORMS WERE MOVING THROUGH WESTSERN PORTIONS OF
PENNSYLVANIA.

AT THIS TIME IT APPEARS THAT THE ONLY AREA OF WEST VIRGINIA THAT
MAY SEE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE NEXT ONE TO TWO HOURS IS IN THE
NORTHERN PANHANDLE AND THOSE COUNTIES BORDERING THE PENNSYLVANIA
BORDER.

THE POTENTIAL FOR THUNDERSTORMS TO FORM FURTHER SOUTH IN WEST VIRGINIA
WILL CONTINUE FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS. ANY STORMS THAT FORM WILL HAVE
THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE STRONG DAMAGING WINDS...HAIL AND VERY HEAVY
RAIN.
