    Areas affected...parts of southern Alabama....southeastern
    Mississippi and adjacent portions of southeastern Louisiana and the
    Florida Panhandle

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 191835Z - 192030Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Additional strong to severe thunderstorm development
    remains possible through the remainder of the afternoon, with
    perhaps at least some increase in coverage. Trends are being
    monitored for the possibility of a severe weather watch.

    DISCUSSION...In the wake of a remnant MCV migrating into
    southeastern Georgia coastal areas, the Rapid Refresh suggests that
    modest (30+ kt) west-southwesterly flow around 850 mb will gradually
    weaken across the southeastern Louisiana into southern
    Alabama/Florida Panhandle vicinity through late afternoon. However,
    seasonably strong (30-40 kt) northwesterly flow lingers in the
    700-500 mb layer across this region, on the southwesterly periphery
    of a broad mid-level low centered over the Ohio Valley.

    Beneath this regime, a seasonably moist boundary-layer is becoming characterized by large mixed-layer CAPE (2000-4000 J/kg) in the the
    presence of modestly steep lapse rates. This is focused along and
    south of a weak front/zone of strengthening differential surface
    heating, south of I-20 across Mississippi through the Meridian
    MS/Montgomery AL vicinities, and west/northwest of a remnant outflow
    boundary near the Florida Panhandle Gulf Coast.

    Thunderstorm initiation is already well underway along the boundary
    near the Montgomery area, with scattered additional new thunderstorm development perhaps beginning to initiate west-southwestward into
    Mississippi, and perhaps near the sea-breeze/outflow boundary across
    southern Mississippi into southeastern Louisiana. As a weak short
    wave perturbation (evident in water vapor imagery digging across the
    lower Mississippi Valley) continues southeastward this afternoon,
    this may provide support for further development and/or upscale
    growth. Isolated supercell structures are possible initially,
    posing a risk for large hail and some continuing risk for a tornado
    (mainly near coastal area), before strong wind gusts become the more
    prominent potential hazard later this afternoon.
