NWS STORM PREDICTION CENTER NORMAN OK
0140 AM CST SUN FEB 16 2025
AREAS AFFECTED...EASTERN TENNESSEE...FAR WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH UNLIKELY
VALID 160740Z - 160945Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...20 PERCENT
SUMMARY...ISOLATED SEVERE GUSTS WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER PARTS OF
EASTERN TENNESSEE AND FAR WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA OVER THE NEXT
COUPLE OF HOURS. NEW WEATHER WATCH ISSUANCE APPEARS UNLIKELY.
DISCUSSION...ACCORDING TO MOSAIC RADAR IMAGERY, THE NORTHERN END OF
A SQUALL LINE IS CURRENTLY MOVING THROUGH MIDDLE TENNESSEE. VERY
LITTLE INSTABILITY IS ANALYZED AHEAD OF THE LINE. HOWEVER, THE
LATEST WSR-88D VWP AT MORRISTOWN HAS 0-6 KM SHEAR NEAR 75 KNOTS WITH
30 TO 40 KNOTS OF FLOW IN THE LOWEST 1 KM. AS THE SQUALL LINE MOVES
EASTWARD INTO THE HIGHER TERRAIN OVER THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO, ISOLATED
DAMAGING GUSTS WILL BE POSSIBLE ALONG THE LEADING EDGE OF THE LINE.
ALTHOUGH A SEVERE THREAT WILL LIKELY PERSIST, THE THREAT IS EXPECTED
TO REMAIN TOO LOCALIZED FOR WEATHER WATCH ISSUANCE.
