    Areas affected...Central/southeast Indiana into southwest Ohio

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 333...

    Valid 082023Z - 082230Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 333 continues.

    SUMMARY...The severe weather threat continues across WW 333. The
    potential for tornadoes continues across the watch area, but may be
    highest across southeast Indiana over the next 1-2 hours.

    DISCUSSION...Numerous supercells are being monitored in regional
    WSR-88D imagery from IN and OH. Most of these cells have displayed
    somewhat paltry updraft intensities with only modest cloud top
    cooling and transient lightning bursts. However, most of these cells
    have displayed storm organization with weak, but persistent,
    mesocyclones. Additionally, a few hail reports have been noted with
    stronger cells, including a couple of 1.75 inch hail report. Storm
    distribution appears sufficiently widespread to continue to favor
    discrete modes across central/southeast IN into southwest OH for the
    next couple of hours. Latest surface observations show the warm
    front has lifted into central IN/OH, and MLCAPE values continue to
    increase across the warm sector to the south of the front (up to
    1000-2000 J/kg per recent mesoanalysis estimates). Regional VWPs and
    ACARS soundings continue to sample veering winds in the lowest few
    kilometers, which is fostering 100-200 m2/s2 ESRH. These trends
    suggest that the overall severe threat will persist across the watch
    area. Portions of southeast IN will likely see the highest tornado
    potential for the next 1-2 hours as relatively stronger low-level
    winds in the vicinity of the surface low boost low-level SRH. Recent
    STP estimates bear out this idea, and several discrete supercells
    within this environment may realize this potential.
