Areas affected...Portions of Central Tennessee and Northern Alabama

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

Valid 242054Z - 242300Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

SUMMARY...A few stronger/organized storms could develop over middle
Tennessee and northern Alabama through this evening. Overall, the
severe threat will remain isolated if it materializes.

DISCUSSION...A shortwave trough is moving over the Southeast and
Ohio River Valley helping to spread ascent over the region. Within
the warm sector including across Mississippi, Alabama, and most of
Tennessee, a moist/unstable airmass is present and supportive of
developing convection. MLCAPE of 750-1500 J/kg over middle
Tennessee/northern Alabama with effective SRH of 75-150 and bulk
shear of 25-30 knots per mesoanalysis/RAP soundings indicate the
potential for a few weakly rotating storms. BNA radar has depicted a
few storms with broad/weak rotation in the last hour across portions
of middle Tennessee. A few stronger/organized storms are possible,
but the overall severe threat remains marginal at best, thus a watch
issuance is not expected.
