Valid 022039Z - 022245Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 98 continues.
SUMMARY...A corridor of strong/intense tornado potential is evident
in northern Mississippi and western Tennessee.
DISCUSSION...A corridor of greater tornado risk becoming evident in
northern Mississippi and western Tennessee. Several discrete storms
have developed in an environment supportive of strong/intense
tornadoes. KPAH and KNQA VAD show ample low-level hodograph
curvature (250-325 m2/s2 0-1 km SRH). With the low-level jet
strength forecast to increase over the coming hours, the environment
will become even more favorable with time.
