Areas affected...Parts of western KY and Middle TN

Concerning...Severe potential...Severe Thunderstorm Watch likely

Valid 181748Z - 181845Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent

SUMMARY...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch will likely be issued for
parts of the area in the next hour. An organized MCS with severe
winds is approaching from the west.

DISCUSSION...An organized bowing MCS is tracking eastward across the
lower OH River Valley at around 50 kt this afternoon -- with a
recent measured gust of 66 mph in far southeastern MO. The MCS is
moving into an increasingly unstable pre-convective environment with
around 40 kt of west-northwesterly deep-layer shear oriented
perpendicular to the leading-edge gust front. This should support
its maintenance downstream into southwestern KY and Middle TN this
afternoon -- with a corresponding risk of severe winds up to 75 mph.
A Severe Thunderstorm Watch will likely be issued for parts of the
area in the next hour.
