    Concerning...Tornado Watch 61...

    Valid 252017Z - 252215Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 61 continues.

    SUMMARY...More rapid intensification of stronger cells embedded
    within the developing line of storms still appears possible through
    4-6 PM CDT, including the evolution of one or two supercells
    accompanied by increasing risk for tornadoes

    DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms have been slow to substantively intensify
    to this point. However, a gradual modification of the
    boundary-layer is ongoing, particularly in a narrow corridor in
    advance of the evolving line, southeast of Fort Polk through the
    Alexandria and Monroe vicinities, where surface dew points are
    likely to continue to increase through the mid/upper 60s F.=20=20

    Beneath 50-60 kt southerly flow in the 1-2 km AGL layer, low-level
    hodographs have become large and clockwise curved. Perhaps with at
    least some further low-level warming, inflow of more unstable air
    may become sufficient to support more rapid intensification of
    stronger cells embedded within the line. If this occurs, the
    environment is conducive to the evolution of supercells posing a
    risk for tornadoes, possibly including a strong tornado or two.
