    Areas affected...the northern half of Mississippi and adjacent parts
    of southwest Tennessee and northwest Alabama

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 46...

    Valid 140935Z - 141130Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 46 continues.

    SUMMARY...Local risk for gusty/damaging winds and a brief tornado or
    two continues across portions of Tornado Watch 46. The need for a future/downstream watch remains uncertain.

    DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows a slowly decaying band of
    storms crossing the Mississippi River at this time. The strongest
    remaining portion of the line extends from near the
    Tennessee/Mississippi border southwest across the Delta region,
    where the severe/brief tornado risk is the greatest.

    Storms should remain largely contained within WW 46 through its
    scheduled 11Z expiration. The need for a downstream watch remains
    uncertain, though low-level moistening indicated ahead of the line
    by surface obs over the past 1-2 hours may allow enough severe
    threat to linger (given the adequately sheared environment) to
    warrant new watch consideration.

    Areas affected...central MS...northwest AL...middle TN and extreme south-central KY

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 310033Z - 310200Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms are expected to continue weakening trend
    from south-central KY into middle TN this evening. A marginal severe
    threat may persist further south into central/northeast MS and
    northwest AL for a couple more hours, but a watch is not expected.

    DISCUSSION...After a brief uptick in convection across south-central
    KY into middle TN over the last hour or two, convection has trended
    toward weakening and a more disorganized state recently. Based on
    the 00z RAOB from BNA, steep midlevel lapse rates are still present,
    however, instability is meager with less than 200 J/kg MUCAPE
    indicated. Effective shear around 54 kt and a fairly large, curved
    low level hodograph gives some clues into the brief organization in
    convection earlier. But, with loss of daytime heating and
    increasingly poorer quality airmass with eastward extent, severe
    threat is expected to quickly diminish across KY/TN.

    Further south, convection has shown some upward trends in intensity
    as cells track east/northeast into central and northeast MS.
    Boundary layer moisture in better further south, with dewpoints in
    the low to mid 60s F resulting in MUCAPE around 500-750 J/kg per JAN
    00z RAOB. A weak capping inversion near 700mb was still evident in
    this observation and is likely precluding more robust
    intensification. Convection therefore will likely continue to
    struggle in weaker forcing with southward extent. A marginal threat
    of a strong wind gust or hail may persist for a couple of hours
    across central/northeast MS into northwest AL as the cold front
    continues to push eastward this evening.
