   Mesoscale Discussion 2108
   NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
   0702 PM CDT Sun Aug 23 2026

   Areas affected...Parts of northeastern Ohio and northwestern
   Pennsylvania

   Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely 

   Valid 240002Z - 240130Z

   Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

   SUMMARY...A couple strong to locally damaging wind gusts will be
   possible during the next hour or two.

   DISCUSSION...A loosely organized band of thunderstorms is tracking
   southeastward across Lake Erie -- ahead of a midlevel vort max
   rotating around a deep upper low over southeastern Ontario. While
   cool surface temperatures downstream may limit the overall severe
   risk, steepened low-level lapse rates, enhanced unidirectional
   low/midlevel flow, and the strengthening cold pool may support a
   couple strong to locally damaging wind gusts across parts of
   northeastern OH and northwestern PA.
