   Areas affected...Southeast KY into far western VA

   Concerning...Tornado Watch 3...

   Valid 061452Z - 061615Z

   The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 3 continues.

   SUMMARY...Some threat for locally damaging wind and/or a tornado may
   continue into late morning.

   DISCUSSION...A band of thunderstorms with a history of producing an
   apparent tornado and locally damaging gusts is moving across
   southeast KY toward western VA this morning. Diminishing instability
   with eastward extent and a tendency for a weakening/veering
   low-level jet (as the primary midlevel shortwave trough moves away)
   should result in a gradual weakening trend with time as storms move
   eastward. However, strong low/midlevel flow and favorable deep-layer
   shear will continue to support organized convection through late
   morning, with an attendant threat of locally damaging gusts and
   perhaps a tornado across the remaining portion of WW 3, and also
   potentially into adjacent parts of far western VA.
