   Areas affected...Portions of southern New England

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 648...

   Valid 261826Z - 262030Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 648
   continues.

   SUMMARY...Large hail and isolated wind damage will remain possible
   until storms move offshore. Should additional storms develop to the
   north, the severe risk will likely be more marginal.

   DISCUSSION...Scattered storms continue across parts of southern New
   England. Thus far, 1-1.5 inch hail has been the primary observed
   hazard over the past 90 minutes. The environment will remain
   supportive of large hail and isolated wind damage before storms move
   offshore within the next few hours. Given the position of the
   greatest mid-level ascent on water vapor imagery, additional
   development to the north of the current activity will likely be more
   isolated in nature. With shear and buoyancy weaker with northern
   extent, the severe threat should remain more marginal.
