Areas affected...Portions of eastern LA...central MS...and far
western AL
Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely=20
Valid 092100Z - 092300Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent
SUMMARY...The risk of severe storms capable of all hazards will
increase during the next few hours. A Tornado Watch is likely in the
next hour.
DISCUSSION...Latest visible satellite imagery shows continued heating/destabilization of a moist boundary layer across portions of
eastern LA into central MS -- ahead of an east-southeastward moving
cold front extending from northwest MS southwestward into northern
LA. Additionally, a northeast/southwest-oriented differential
heating zone is evident from central MS into LA. Thunderstorm
development is expected along the front during the next few hours,
as midlevel height falls overspread the frontal zone amid continued
warm-sector destabilization. A linear mode is expected
along/immediately ahead of the front given largely front-parallel
deep-layer flow/shear, with an associated severe-wind threat.
However, current indications are that a weak frontal wave may
develop northeastward along the frontal zone this evening, yielding
a modest low-level mass response and increasing low-level hodograph size/curvature. This could promote embedded supercell structures and
a tornado risk. This threat will gradually spread eastward along the
cold front into the late evening hours.=20
Additional storm development is possible ahead of the cold front in
the vicinity of the differential heating boundary across central MS,
and these storms would likely remain more discrete given weaker
forcing. 40-50 kt of effective shear will favor supercells capable
of large hail, damaging winds, and some tornado threat. Overall,
confidence in the development of sustained/persistent
discrete/semi-discrete supercells is low given lingering capping and
the weak forcing for ascent.=20
A Tornado Watch is likely in the next hour for much of the area.
