Areas affected...portions of central Mississippi into northern
Alabama and Middle Tennessee

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible

Valid 061759Z - 062000Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

SUMMARY...At least isolated damaging gusts/large hail may occur with
the stronger storms that can become sustained along the cold front.
Conditions are currently being monitored for the need of a Severe
Thunderstorm Watch issuance.

DISCUSSION...A cold front continues to drift southeast as an upper
low drifts towards the Great Lakes. Relatively rich low-level
moisture has advected northward ahead of the front, with upper 60s F
dewpoints noted as far north as the TN/AL border. 7-8 C/km mid-level
lapse rates have overspread the warm sector, contributing to MLCAPE
of 1000-2000 J/kg across the Southeast, decreasing to 500 J/kg into
KY. CU have been steadily growing from eastern MS into northern AL.
While modest deep-layer shear exists over the warm sector, the
stronger low-level flow lags behind the cold front. Nonetheless, any
storms that manage to become sustained and organized may achieve
multicellular/transient supercell structures capable of producing
damaging gusts or large hail given the aforementioned buoyancy. A WW
issuance is possible over the next few hours.
