AREAS AFFECTED...WESTERN TENNESSEE...NORTHERN MISSISSIPPI
CONCERNING...SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 626...
VALID 190152Z - 190245Z
THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 626
CONTINUES.
SUMMARY...SEVERE THREAT CONTINUES WITHIN WW626.
DISCUSSION...A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS WESTERN TENNESSEE HAS
SEEN AN UPTICK IN LIGHTNING ACTIVITY OVER THE LAST 30 MINUTES, WITH
SOMEWHAT BETTER ORGANIZED RADAR PRESENTATION. VELOCITY FROM KNQA
SHOWS 40-45 KT WINDS AROUND 1-1.5 KFT. SURFACE OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS
WOULD SUGGEST THAT THE SOUTHERLY LOW-LEVEL JET IS INCREASING AROUND
30-40 KTS. THE THERMODYNAMIC PROFILE REMAINS WEAK, BUT INCREASING
SHEAR FOR ORGANIZATION MAY ALLOW FOR A PERIOD OF INCREASING DAMAGING
WIND POTENTIAL. AT THIS TIME, UNCERTAINTY IN LONGEVITY OF THIS
THREAT LEADS TO LOW CONFIDENCE IN A DOWNSTREAM WATCH BUT LOCAL
EXTENSION OF WW626 MAY BE WARRANTED.
