   Areas affected...central into eastern Lower Michigan

   Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 656...

   Valid 271946Z - 272145Z

   The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 656
   continues.

   SUMMARY...Storms over central Lower Michigan continue to pose a
   strong to severe wind threat, with gusty wind potential spreading
   east over the next several hours.

   DISCUSSION...Storms with extensive outflow have pushed across Lake
   MI and into western MI, producing locally severe gusts. Although
   current radar presentation shows rather broken cell structures,
   fast-moving outflow continues to push east.  

   Given the strongly unstable air mass developing ahead of the
   outflow, some severe potential will likely spread eastward through
   the afternoon, with strong to locally severe gusts. Shear remains
   weak but new development is possible along the outflow with some
   degree of forward propagation expected. Also aided downdraft
   potential are precipitable water values in excess of 1.75" and
   steepening low-level lapse rates into the peak heating hours.
