Areas affected...south-central Kentucky...parts of middle and
western Tennessee...east-central Arkansas...northern
Mississippi...and northwestern Alabama

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

Valid 061106Z - 061300Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...A few damaging wind gusts, and/or a brief/weak tornado or
two, remain possible this morning with near-frontal convective
bands.  Limited/sparse nature of the risk continues to suggest that
new WW issuance will not be required.

DISCUSSION...Some increase/sharpening of the frontal convective band
has occurred over the past hour, from southwestern Kentucky to
western Tennessee.  This is occurring as convection approaches the
axis of greatest instability (around 500 J/kg mixed-layer CAPE).

In tandem with the sharpening of the convective band, a few weak
QLCS-type small-scale circulations have been observed, particularly
near the Tennessee/Kentucky border area.  These circulations are
being aided by low-level flow that veers weakly and increases
substantially within the lowest 1km.  With that said, a weakly
stable boundary layer, and limited CAPE, suggest that severe
potential will remain muted the remainder of the morning.  As such,
WW issuance is unlikely to be required.
