   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 321...

   Valid 122319Z - 130045Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 321
   continues.

   SUMMARY...A gradual decrease in convective intensity and coverage is
   expected through the next 1-2 hours. Some potential for occasional
   damaging wind gusts will continue in the meantime.

   DISCUSSION...Regional radar imagery continues to depicts scattered
   thunderstorms across Severe Thunderstorm Watch 321, with a downburst
   recently producing a measured 58 kt (67 mph) wind gust at Dulles
   airport. Downstream surface observations across southeastern
   Virginia indicate surface temperatures are beginning to cool, with a
   dissipation of boundary layer cumulus also noted on visible
   satellite. As nocturnal cooling/stabilization continues, a gradual
   decrease in convective coverage and intensity is expected over the
   next 1-2 hours. Some potential for occasional damaging wind gusts
   will persist in the near-term, however, with the greatest potential
   likely to accompany any stronger downbursts. A local watch extension
   may be needed, particularly in southeastern Virginia, should a
   stronger storm or two persist after 01z, but a new Severe
   Thunderstorm Watch is not anticipated.
