    Mesoscale Discussion 1108
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0554 PM CDT Fri Jul 20 2018

    Areas affected...Kentucky...Tennessee...northern Mississippi and
    Alabama

    Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely

    Valid 202254Z - 210130Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent

    SUMMARY...Severe storms are expected to redevelop during the 00-03Z
    period along and perhaps ahead of the front, with a few tornadoes,
    very large hail, and damaging winds. Significant severe weather is
    possible.

    DISCUSSION...An initial round of severe storms is currently lifting
    northeast across central KY, but a very favorable environment
    remains in place across the region ahead of a front. This boundary,
    currently extending from southern IN and IL into southeast MO and
    northern AR, will shift south this evening. Meanwhile, the main
    shortwave aloft over MO will dive southeastward across the lower MS
    Valley. The expectation is for storms to form both along the
    boundary, and possibly farther east across the open warm sector
    where a CU field currently exits, or, a southward extension of the
    ongoing KY activity into middle TN. Shear profiles will favor
    supercells, and perhaps bowing lines with time should outflow
    production be more than expected. While model solutions vary with
    the location, timing, and mode of expected severe storms, the
    environment is extremely unstable with unseasonably strong shear
    profiles. Thus, damaging hail, wind, and tornadoes are all possible.
