    Areas affected...Portions of TN...northeastern MS...northern
    AL/GA...and far southwestern NC

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 151840Z - 152115Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...An isolated hail/wind threat may exist with stronger
    thunderstorms this afternoon. Watch issuance will probably not be
    needed.

    DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms have recently developed along/near a weak front/surface trough draped across northern MS into western/middle
    TN. Additional convection is also occurring across parts of the
    southern Appalachians. Even though this activity is occurring on the
    northern side of a westerly mid-level jet present across the
    Southeast, around 25-35 kt of effective bulk shear estimated on
    recent VWPs from KOHX should allow for modest updraft organization.
    Stronger deep-layer shear is estimated by mesoanalysis farther south
    into northern MS/AL/GA, closer to the mid-level jet axis. Diurnal
    heating of a moist low-level airmass and modestly steepened
    mid-level lapse rates are supporting around 1000-2000 J/kg of
    MLCAPE. Multicell clusters capable of producing both isolated severe
    hail and damaging winds should be the main convective mode and
    threats, respectively. But, a supercell or two may also occur with
    southward extent, where deep-layer shear exceeds 35 kt. At this
    point, the overall severe threat should remain fairly isolated this
    afternoon. Accordingly, watch issuance will probably not be needed.
