Serious potential for strong (tornadic) supercells on June 18th in FVG, Italy

Estofex gave LVL2 for today in N-Italy and the setup really is very good. I won't really into details because time is not on my side. Just a quick writeup. 50 kt 0-6 km shear combined with good SFC winds with nice veering and moderate CAPE values suggests serious potential. The best potential is again in the FVG region where winds are the best. The cap is not small and there is no serious 10m convergence until 18Z so we will see if it can break it anyway. PWAT values are ridiculousy high, in the 42mm range, so everything points to (potentially tornadic) HP supercells. Good luck to everyone who will chase today. I won't be chasing because of college work. :(
