AREAS AFFECTED...CNTRL AR...FAR SWRN TN...EXTREME NW MS

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY

VALID 301855Z - 302100Z

THUNDERSTORM INTENSITY HAS INCREASED ALONG AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY
SLOWLY PROGRESSING SEWD THROUGH AR. HOWEVER...ISOLATED NATURE OF THE
THREAT PRECLUDES THE NEED FOR A WW AT THIS TIME.

18Z SURFACE ANALYSIS DEPICTS AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY ORIENTED SW TO NE
ACROSS CNTRL AR INTO FAR WRN TN /FROM DEQ NEWD TO DYR/. LATEST RADAR
IMAGERY SHOWS ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE WITH AN
INTENSIFYING CELL OVER PIKE COUNTY. SOME STRENGTHENING OF THE
ONGOING ACTIVITY IS POSSIBLE AS HEATING CONTINUES UNDER PARTLY
CLOUDY SKIES. CURRENT SURFACE OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS INDICATES MLCAPE
VALUES NEAR 1500 J/KG. HOWEVER...DEEP LAYER FLOW IS WEAK /EFFECTIVE
SHEAR VALUES AOB 30 KTS/ AND ONLY MODEST STORM ORGANIZATION APPEARS
MOST PROBABLE. MULTICELL CLUSTER WILL LIKELY EXHIBIT BRIEF
ORGANIZATION WITH A LOCALIZED THREAT FOR HAIL AND STRONG WIND GUSTS.
ADDITIONALLY...MOIST ATMOSPHERIC PROFILES /PWATS AOA 1.50 INCHES/
AND SOME POTENTIAL TRAINING ALONG THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY SUGGEST HEAVY
RAIN IS LIKELY WITH RAIN RATES OVER 2 INCHES PER HOUR.
