Areas affected...central and northern Arkansas...and western/Middle
Tennessee

Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely

Valid 090029Z - 090130Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent

SUMMARY...A band of severe/rotating storms from the Ozarks to far
eastern Oklahoma, and developing convection across the western
Tennessee area in soon-to-expire WW 209, will require new Tornado
Watch issuance.

DISCUSSION...Latest Springfield, MO (KSGF) radar loop shows a band
of severe/supercell storms moving across south-central Missouri and
northwestern Arkansas.  Meanwhile, convection is gradually
increasing farther east, across western Tennessee.

The airmass across this region remains very unstable, with
mixed-layer CAPE in the 3000 to 4000 J/kg range.  This should be
more than sufficient to sustain vigorous updrafts, support CAM runs
which increase convective coverage over the next several hours.
Strong deep-layer winds will support organized convection, with an
all-hazards severe risk likely to continue through the evening and
into the overnight hours -- warranting new tornado watch issuance
across this region.
