Areas affected...Central Arkansas

Concerning...Tornado Watch 45...

Valid 150131Z - 150230Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 45 continues.

SUMMARY...A strong tornado will be possible in the vicinity of
western Little Rock over the next hour.

DISCUSSION...Low-level flow as increased over the last hour across
central Arkansas. 0-1 km storm-relative helicity on the WSR-88D VWP
at Little Rock has increased from near 150 m2/s2 to about 225 m2/s2.
This increase in low-level shear will continue to support a tornado
threat. The storm to the west of Little Rock in the area around Hot
Springs has had a history of tornadoes. As this storm moves
east-northeastward, the storm-scale environment could support the
development of a strong tornado in the vicinity of western Little
Rock over the next 60 minutes.
