Areas affected...northern Alabama and vicinity
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible
Valid 251949Z - 252145Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent
SUMMARY...Convection is forecast to increase in coverage over the
next 1-2 hours, with a few stronger cells becoming capable of
producing hail, as well as a few locally damaging gusts. A watch
may become necessary depending upon convective evolution.
DISCUSSION...Latest surface analysis shows some warming/moistening
of the airmass ahead of a surface front advancing across the
mid-South/central Gulf Coast states in a segmented manner. Initial
storms have developed over parts of Middle Tennessee nearer the
upper trough, where cooler air aloft in conjunction with limited
heating has yielded a pocket of modest /near 500 J/kg/ mixed-layer
CAPE development.
Though convergence is generally weak farther south into Alabama and
vicinity, modest CAPE should support isolated to scattered storm
development south of the initial convection, likely along the cold
front -- crossing northern Mississippi -- and/or a second frontal
segment/wind shift crossing northern and central Alabama.
Though instability will remain modest and convergence generally
weak, westerly flow increasing with height across the region is
yielding speed shear sufficient for organized updrafts. As such, a
few storms may become capable of producing hail. Gusty/locally
damaging winds will also be possible in a few locales --
particularly if any upscale growth into line segments can occur
through this afternoon/early evening.
