    Areas affected...Southeast LA into southern MS

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 21...

    Valid 120519Z - 120645Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 21 continues.

    SUMMARY...Some threat for hail, damaging gusts, and possibly a
    tornado or two may continue overnight.

    DISCUSSION...Scattered strong thunderstorms are ongoing from near
    the LA coast into southern MS, in advance of a cold front that is
    approaching from the west. Moderate buoyancy (with MLCAPE of up to
    1500 J/kg) and strong deep-layer shear will continue to promote
    storm organization, with occasional supercell structures potentially
    persisting into the early overnight hours. Hail will likely continue
    to be the primary threat, with localized strong/damaging gusts also
    possible. While surface winds to the south of the composite outflow
    boundary have recently veered somewhat, low-level shear remains
    sufficient to support at least a brief tornado threat, given the
    rich low-level moisture in place (with dewpoints near 70F).=20

    There is some potential for the severe threat to persist across at
    least the southern portion of WW 21 after the 07Z expiration time.
    Local extension or new watch issuance may need to be considered,
    depending on trends regarding storm coverage and intensity over the
    next 60-90 minutes.
