EWP Status for 14 May 2014: 12:30-8:30 pm Shift

The threat for severe weather looks to be a bit higher today across parts of the Ohio Valley as the same storm system continues to propagate eastward. We have two forecasters operating in the Wilmington, OH CWA, while the other two are operating in the Nashville CWA. We hope that the group in the Nashville CWA will be able to utilize PGLM total lightning  and the Lightning Jump Algorithm from the Huntsville Lightning Mapping Array.

Once again, the outlook from the EFP was helpful in determining where the EWP should operate.

wed_efp_outlookUpdate: the group in Nashville has moved to the Pittsburgh CWA as the severe weather threat and even lightning activity has been very marginal in the area. It looks like Pittsburgh could become quite active in the coming hours.
