AREAS AFFECTED...SERN MO/SRN IL/WRN KY/NRN PORTIONS OF WRN AND
MIDDLE TN

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE

VALID 241813Z - 241945Z

WE CONTINUE TO MONITOR AREAS NEAR WARM FRONT OVER THE LOWER OH
VALLEY REGION FOR LIMITED TORNADO THREAT.

LATEST RADAR LOOP REVEALS A SLOW INCREASE IN STORM INTENSITY OVER
THE DISCUSSION AREA...S OF WARM FRONT WHICH IS NOW LOCATED JUST N OF
THE OH RIVER.  DAYTIME HEATING OF RELATIVELY MOIST BOUNDARY LAYER
HAS LED TO MODERATE DESTABILIZATION...AND THUS EXPECT A
SLOW/CONTINUED INCREASE IN STORM INTENSITY OVER THIS REGION.

MAIN LIMITING FACTOR WITH RESPECT TO SEVERE THREAT ATTM APPEARS TO
BE A RELATIVE LACK OF FAVORABLE DEEP-LAYER SHEAR.  THIS SHOULD KEEP
SEVERE THREAT RELATIVELY LOW IN GENERAL.  MAIN CONCERN WOULD BE IF
STORMS CAN DEVELOP NEAR/MOVE ALONG THE WARM FRONT...WHERE MORE
FAVORABLE LOW-LEVEL VORTICITY/SHEAR COULD CONTRIBUTE TO THE THREAT
FOR AN ISOLATED TORNADO.  WHILE WW IS NOT IMMINENT...AN INCREASE IN
STORMS ALONG THE WARM FRONT COULD REQUIRE TORNADO WATCH ISSUANCE.
