THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR TORNADO WATCH 5 CONTINUES.
SUMMARY...THE THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER WILL INCREASE THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON AND INTO EARLY EVENING. A FEW TORNADOES APPEAR LIKELY.
DISCUSSION...VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY AS WELL AS SURFACE
OBSERVATIONS SHOW THE CONTINUED NORTHWARD MOVEMENT OF THE WARM FRONT
ACROSS SOUTHERN MS AND AL. GUSTY SOUTHERLY WINDS OVER 30 KT EXIST
OVER MUCH OF EASTERN LA, INDICATIVE OF BOUNDARY-LAYER MIXING AND
STRENGTHENING LOW-LEVEL JET. THIS AIR MASS WILL SPREAD NORTH THROUGH
EVENING.
NOTABLE PRESSURE FALLS EXIST OVER SOUTHERN MS AND INTO SOUTHWEST AL,
JUST AHEAD OF A RASH OF DEVELOPING STORMS. GIVEN 0-1 SRH OF 200-300
M2/S2 AND DESTABILIZING AIR MASS, THESE CELLS ARE LIKELY TO BECOME
SUPERCELLULAR, WITH AN INCREASING THREAT OF TORNADOES AS CELLS
MATURE. A STRONG TORNADO OR TWO IS POSSIBLE AS STORMS MOVE IN
CONCERT WITH THE WARM FRONT WITH ACCESS TO BOTH LARGE LOW-LEVEL
SHEAR AND FAVORABLE INSTABILITY.
