valid 231755z - 232000z

probability of watch issuance...40 percent

summary...numerous storms expected across the warm sector this
afternoon. trends will be monitored for storm organization and the
possibility of a ww.

discussion...the warm sector across ern il/ind/wrn oh is heating and
destabilizing...resulting in mlcape values over 1500 j/kg /per
recent mesoanalysis/. the overall shear is relatively weak across
the warm sector with unidirectional swly flow leading to generally
less than 20 kts of deep-layer shear...thus...storms will generally
struggle to organize. one exception may be along/near the warm
front located near the srn lower mi border. another exception may
be farther west across ecntrl il ahead of the mcv...where shear may
be enhanced leading to more organized convection and a damaging wind
threat /supported by recent hrrr runs/.
