...POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACCOMPANIED BY DAMAGING WINDS...

THE WINDS TODAY ARE GOING TO BE GUSTY AS A RESULT OF A DEEPENING LOW
PRESSURE MOVING NORTHEAST ALONG THE APPALACHIANS. THIS SAME STORM IS
ALSO BRINGING MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIR INTO THE REGION. AS A RESULT,
THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING BY THIS
AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EARLY EVENING HOURS. ANY STORMS THAT FORM
WILL DO SO IN A NARROW SQUALL LINE, THEN MOVE ACROSS THE AREA.

STRONG WIND GUSTS OF 60 TO 70 MPH ARE POSSIBLE WITHIN THIS LINE,
AND ACCOMPANIED BY BRIEF TORRENTIAL RAINS AND CONTINUOUS
LIGHTNING.

PARTS OF THE REGION CONTINUE UNDER A FLOOD WATCH UNTIL LATE
TONIGHT, AND A WIND ADVISORY UNTIL THIS EVENING. REMEMBER, THE
GUSTS ASSOCIATED WITH ANY THUNDERSTORMS COULD BE TWICE AS HIGH AS 
THE GRADIENT WIND TODAY. 

PLEASE REFER TO STATEMENTS ON OUR WEB SITE AT WWW.WEATHER.GOV/PHI.
