    Mesoscale Discussion 0254

    Areas affected...Parts of northern MS/AL

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

    Valid 150836Z - 151030Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Some threat for locally damaging gusts and/or a brief
    tornado may persist through the early morning.

    DISCUSSION...A loosely organized QLCS is ongoing early this morning
    from eastern/middle TN toward the ArkLaTex region. In general, the
    QLCS is oriented southwest-to-northeast, roughly parallel to the
    deep-layer shear vectors, with a tendency for outflow to undercut
    the strongest convection. However, a portion of the QLCS across
    northern MS has taken on a more north-south orientation, with some
    increase in storm organization noted, including some low-level
    rotation where this line segment is intersecting the more east-west
    oriented outflow.=20

    If this line segment can maintain its current orientation and
    organization as it moves eastward, then some threat for locally
    damaging gusts will spread eastward into northeast MS and northern
    AL. A brief line-embedded tornado also cannot be ruled out where
    this line segment intersects the outflow. Given the relatively
    narrow corridor of somewhat more favorable severe threat and
    potential for outflow to keep sagging southward, the need for watch
    issuance is uncertain at this time.
