    Areas affected...Southeast LA...eastern MS...central and southern
    AL...and western FL Panhandle

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 419...

    Valid 010930Z - 011130Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 419 continues.

    SUMMARY...A tornado threat remains possible through 11-12Z across
    southeast Louisiana into southern Mississippi with discrete storms,
    ahead of the primary line of storms. Meanwhile, the eastward-moving
    line of storms will continue through an environment conducive for
    damaging winds and a tornado threat. A new tornado watch will be
    needed by 11Z across central and southern Alabama and part of the
    western Florida Panhandle, as the air mass downstream destabilizes,
    supporting severe storms.

    DISCUSSION...Trends in mosaic radar imagery showed a quasi-linear
    band of storms moving steadily eastward at 30-35 kt across MS and
    southeast LA into the northwest Gulf of Mexico, while discrete
    storms continued to develop ahead of the line from the Gulf into
    southeast LA/MS. These discrete storms were tracking to the north
    and north-northeast within an environment that is sufficiently
    buoyant and becoming more strongly sheared, given strengthening
    deep-layer wind fields and large hodographs. Individual radar
    imagery ahead of the line of storms indicated several of the
    discrete storms already have supercell structure from off the LA
    coast through southeast LA to southeast MS. A tornado threat will
    exist with these storms prior to them being absorbed/overtaken by
    the eastward-moving line of storms.

    Meanwhile, the QLCS should maintain its structure with eastward
    movement this morning, as it advances through the rest of WW 419 and
    at least through parts of central and southern AL and the western FL
    Panhandle. This will be due to the effective bulk shear vectors
    being oriented generally front parallel and forcing for ascent
    attendant to a lead shortwave trough moving across the central Gulf
    coast states toward the southern Appalachians this morning. Given
    the above mentioned increase in hodograph curvature and
    strengthening wind fields with eastward extent, damaging winds will
    remain possible with the QLCS, and a tornado threat with any
    embedded supercells or line vortices.
