As of 19:30 UTC, MRMS imagery depicts an intensifying squall line with a history of severe gusts moving eastward across northeast OH. This section of the squall line remains well-phased with ascent and stronger mid-level flow associated with the shortwave trough aloft. Downstream of the squall line, a recent 18 UTC RAOB from PIT sampled a strongly sheared and uncapped environment that should maintain squall line intensity through early evening and lends confidence in the ongoing wind forecast. Further south across the Mid-Atlantic, temperatures continue to warm into the mid 90s with the early stages of organized convection noted along the Appalachians and within a surface trough in north-central NC. Regional 18 UTC soundings sampled a sufficiently buoyant and strongly sheared environment that will likely promote further organization and intensification through the evening hours as convection spreads east/northeast.
