Areas affected...Parts of AL into middle TN

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

Valid 131721Z - 131945Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...The threat for locally damaging wind and possibly a
tornado may increase into this afternoon.

DISCUSSION...A remnant surface low is located over northern AR early
this afternoon. An occluded front extends east-northeast of the low
into western TN, then extends southeast as a stationary or warm
front across parts of northern/central AL into western GA. Farther
south, a cold front is moving across MS, with a surface trough/wind
shift noted to the east from western AL into southern MS.=20

In the vicinity of these boundaries, convection is gradually
increasing from western AL into southern middle TN, and a few cells
across northwest AL have exhibited some weak rotation. While
low-level flow/shear has gradually decreased as the remnant of
Tropical Cyclone Francine has weakened, effective SRH of around 100
m2/s2 and modestly favorable deep-layer shear will continue to favor occasionally organized convection into this afternoon. MLCAPE will
increase to near or above 1000 J/kg, with an increase in convective
coverage expected with time within a weakly capped environment.

A few marginal supercells could evolve with time, and a tornado
cannot be ruled out, especially in a zone between the surface
trough/wind shift approaching from the west and the effective warm
front to the east, where low-level flow will remain locally backed
as gradual heating/destabilization continues. Otherwise, locally
damaging winds will be possible, especially if any localized
clustering of convection can develop with time.
