Concerning...Tornado Watch 129...131...

Valid 060827Z - 061030Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 129, 131 continues.

SUMMARY...Circulations embedded within a line of pre-frontal storms,
and perhaps additional more discrete storms near or just ahead of
the line, will continue to pose a risk for brief tornadoes and/or
locally damaging wind gusts while slowly spreading across
southeastern Mississippi into central Alabama through 6-7 AM CDT.

DISCUSSION...Convective development has largely remain focused along
a slow moving to stalling outflow boundary, now near or south of a
line from Chattanooga TN through Huntsville AL and Columbus MS,
where it intersects outflow associated with a line of convection
extending southward toward a slowly advancing cold front near and south-southwest of Jackson MS. Near/east of this activity,
inhibition associated with large-scale ridging aloft continues to
suppress deep convective development; however one cell, emerging
from pre-frontal bands of weak convection across southeastern
Mississippi through the Alabama border vicinity, did recently
intensify to the west of Meridian (and probably produce a tornado)
prior to beginning to merge into the convective line.

The large-scale mid/upper ridging and positively-tilted upstream
troughing are very slowly progressing eastward, and it appears that
ongoing thunderstorm activity will do likewise. Although the Rapid
Refresh suggests that a stronger southerly 850 mb jet core is in the
process of shifting into the southern Appalachians, flow on the
order of 40+ kt trails southwestward toward the Gulf coast. This is maintaining sizable clockwise-curved low-level hodographs near weak
pre-frontal surface troughing, where a narrow corridor of seasonably
moist boundary layer air (including surface dew points near 70)
appears to be supporting moderately large CAPE on the order of
1000-2000 J/kg.
