Areas affected...Parts of central Mississippi into far eastern
Louisiana
Concerning...Tornado Watch 307...
Valid 210158Z - 210400Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 307 continues.
SUMMARY...A localized severe risk continues across parts of central
Mississippi into far eastern Louisiana in Tornado Watch 307. The
primary concerns have become damaging wind gusts and large hail,
though a tornado or two cannot be ruled out -- especially over
central Mississippi.
DISCUSSION...Along a northeast/southwest-oriented cold front
extending from central MS into central LA, a small cluster of severe
storms continues moving slowly east-southeastward across central MS,
while a separate supercell structure has recently evolved over far
east-central LA. Steep midlevel lapse rates atop a warm/moist
boundary layer (sampled by LCH/JAN 00Z soundings) is still
contributing to moderate surface-based instability ahead of these
storms. This, combined with around 50 kt of 0-6 km shear (per VWPs),
will continue to support the ongoing severe storms as they continue
east-southeastward over the next few hours. Given the ongoing storm
mode, damaging winds and large hail have become the primary
concerns. However, a tornado or two cannot be ruled out, especially
with the ongoing cluster of storms over central MS (which has
recently exhibited supercellular structure) -- given around 250
m2/s2 0-1km SRH (per DGX VWP data).
