    Mesoscale Discussion 0809
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    1231 PM CDT Thu Jun 21 2018

    Areas affected...Southern IL...southeast MO...northeast AR...western KY...western TN...and northern MS

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

    Valid 211731Z - 212000Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent

    SUMMARY...Thunderstorms will continue to develop this afternoon from
    north to south, with an increasing potential for some of the storms
    to become severe producing a damaging wind threat and possibly hail.
    A severe thunderstorm watch is being considered from parts of
    southern Illinois southward to northern Mississippi and northeast
    Arkansas.

    DISCUSSION...Trends in mosaic radar imagery and lightning data
    indicated a couple broken bands of storms have developed from
    western IL into southeast MO, with new storm formation underway
    across north-central AR. The western most band of storms was
    located along a cold front, while the leading band formed in
    vicinity of a differential heating boundary. Nonetheless, this
    activity has developed within a destabilizing/moist boundary-layer
    and in an axis of moderate instability. Additional height falls
    attendant to the exit region of a 50+ kt 500-mb jet impinging on the
    discussion area this afternoon and evening will further support
    sustained thunderstorm development. The moderate instability and
    effective bulk shear of 35-45 kt will aid in storm organization with
    damaging winds and hail being the primary severe threats, as storms
    spread from west to east.
