    Areas affected...Northeast AR...Western TN...Extreme northwest
    MS...MO Bootheel region

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

    Valid 120713Z - 120915Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Some threat for isolated hail and strong/damaging gusts is
    expected early this morning. Short-term watch issuance is unlikely,
    though another round of potentially severe storms is expected later
    this morning.

    DISCUSSION...Multiple bowing storm clusters are moving across east-central/northeast AR early this morning, with observed wind
    gusts in the 40-45 kt (with one 54 kt gust recently noted at KARG in
    the wake of the line) and potentially large hail noted in MRMS data.
    These storms are generally northeast of the primary low-level moist
    axis, and will likely continue to be somewhat elevated as they move east-northeastward toward western TN and the MO Bootheel region.
    However, steepening midlevel lapse rates and strong deep-layer
    flow/shear (as noted in the 06Z LZK sounding and regional VWPs) in
    advance of a strong mid/upper-level shortwave trough will continue
    to support organized convection early this morning, with some threat
    for isolated hail and strong/damaging gusts.=20

    Given the somewhat elevated nature of the ongoing storms and a
    likely tendency for this convection to move out of the primary
    instability axis, short-term watch issuance is unlikely. However,
    another round of organized convection is expected later this
    morning, as the upstream shortwave and its attendant strong forcing
    and powerful flow fields overspread the region.
