Areas affected...south-central Kentucky into Middle Tennessee
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 311929Z - 312100Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent
SUMMARY...Isolated to scattered strong storms will continue through
the afternoon. A few strong wind gusts are possible with these
storms, but the overall threat will remain marginal the remainder of
the afternoon and a watch is not expected.
DISCUSSION...Scattered thunderstorms will continue through the
afternoon in a very moist and unstable environment. Temperatures
have warmed into the mid 80s to low 90s F across the region with
dewpoints generally in the low 70s F. As a result, MLCAPE values
near 2000 J/kg were noted. Deep layer shear and midlevel lapse rates
are lackluster and this will limit longevity/organization, but DCAPE
values are approaching 1500 J/kg and some strong wind gusts will
continue to be possible through the remainder of the afternoon.
Given the lack of a more organized threat, a watch is not expected
at this time. While severe threat in the short term is expected to
remain marginal, some hi-res guidance suggests a more organized
bowing line may migrate into parts of Middle Tennessee later
tonight, mainly after 00z.
