THE AIR MASS OVER THE TENNESSEE VALLEY IS QUITE UNSTABLE...WITH SBCAPE AROUND 2000 J/KG AND LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES OVER 8 C/KM. GOES SOUNDER LI ARE BETWEEN -5 AND -8 IN THE NORTH. EXPECT TO SEE CONTINUED THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT THROUGH THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLATEAU/NORTHERN VALLEY AND SW VA NEAR THE FRONT. MOST OF THE ACTIVITY BEFORE MIDNIGHT SHOULD BE MAINLY IN THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE AREA. AS THE SURFACE LOW NOW OVER MO MOVES EAST ALONG THE FRONT...THE FRONT WILL BEGIN TO PUSH TO THE SOUTH AND EAST. FORCING AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL SPREAD TSTMS ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA BY MIDNIGHT. GIVEN THE INSTABILITY IN PLACE...LOW LEVEL FORCING WITH THE FRONT...AND INCREASING UPPER DIVERGENCE OVERNIGHT...WILL HAVE CATEGORICAL POPS ALONG WITH A MENTION OF LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS. THE GFS PLACES THE FRONT ACROSS OUR SOUTHERN TIER AT 18Z TOMORROW AFTERNOON...WHILE THE NAM SHOWS A MUCH WEAKER FRONT WITH ONLY A WIND SHIFT AT OUR SOUTHERN BORDER AT THAT TIME.
