    Mesoscale Discussion 1820

    Areas affected...northeastern Mississippi eastward/southeastward to
    eastern Georgia

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

    Valid 031750Z - 031945Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Potential for strong wind gusts locally -- and possibly a
    few gusts at/near severe levels -- will continue to slowly increase
    this afternoon. Risk may warrant consideration of a WW issuance in
    the next hour or so.

    DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows some redevelopment of storms
    ongoing, near convective outflow on the southwestern flank of the
    remnant MCS over the Tennessee Valley. Diurnal heating -- and thus destabilization -- has been somewhat muted from northern Alabama
    eastward due to cloud cover. However, mixed-layer CAPE now near
    1000 J/kg (and greater to the west across northern Mississippi), has
    begun fueling new storm development near the outflow boundary
    extending roughly west-to-east across this area.

    Moderate northwesterly flow aloft is indicated across the region,
    which is sufficient for some storm organization, and potential for upscale/linear growth of storms with time. Any risk for damaging
    wind gusts would likely remain quite isolated, until and unless some
    linear organization occurs. We will continue to monitor convective
    evolution for signs of such an increase, which would then
    necessitate more serious WW consideration.
