    Mesoscale Discussion 0281

    Areas affected...Southeast Louisiana...Southern
    Mississippi...Southwest Alabama...Far Western Florida Panhandle

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 221537Z - 221800Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...A marginal tornado and wind damage threat will persist
    into the early afternoon across parts of southeast Louisiana,
    southern Mississippi. The threats will likely affect southwest
    Alabama and the far western Florida Panhandle later today. No
    weather watch is expected due to the marginal setup.

    DISCUSSION...The latest surface analysis shows a 1011 mb low over
    southeast Louisiana with a warm front extending eastward across
    south-central Mississippi. A moist airmass was located south of the
    front with surface dewpoints in the mid to upper 60s F. Water vapor
    imagery showed a shortwave trough over the lower Mississippi Valley. Large-scale ascent associated with this feature will continue to
    support thunderstorm development along the warm front into the
    afternoon where a marginal wind damage threat will persist.

    Further south across far southern Mississippi and southeast
    Louisiana, surface dewpoints are near 70 F and instability is
    considerably stronger. The RAP suggests that SBCAPE is estimated to
    be near 1000 J/kg right along the Mississippi coast. The Mobile
    WSR-88D VWP does show enough speed and directional shear in the
    lowest 2 km AGL for a marginal tornado threat. However, due to
    widespread clouds and precipitation ahead of the activity, most of
    the instability is offshore suggesting that any tornado threat will
    remain marginal.

    Mesoscale Discussion 0281
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0314 PM CDT Sun Apr 07 2019

    Areas affected...Portions of east-central MO into central/northern
    IL

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 072014Z - 072245Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...An isolated large hail and strong/gusty wind threat may
    exist with thunderstorms that develop this afternoon. Watch issuance
    appears unlikely at this time due to the overall marginal
    environment.

    DISCUSSION...Isolated to perhaps widely scattered thunderstorms
    should develop within the next hour or so along a surface trough
    from east-central MO into central/northern IL as large-scale ascent
    preceding a shortwave trough overspreads this region. Immediately
    ahead of the surface trough temperatures have generally warmed into
    the upper 60s to lower 80s, with dewpoints mostly in the mid 50s to
    lower 60s. Resultant weak instability, with MLCAPE in the 250-1000
    J/kg range, and effective bulk shear of 30-40 kt may be sufficient
    for some updraft organization. Isolated large hail may be the
    primary threat as cool mid-level temperatures and modestly steepened
    mid-level lapse rates associated with the shortwave trough move
    across this region. Strong/gusty downdraft winds could also occur,
    particularly where low-level lapse rates have been steepened through
    diurnal heating. Overall storm coverage and the limited
    thermodynamic environment suggest the severe threat will probably
    remain marginal/isolated, and watch issuance appears unlikely at
    this time.
