Areas affected...portions of central Arkansas into northern
Mississippi and Alabama

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

Valid 242058Z - 242230Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

SUMMARY...Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms continue along an
outflow boundary across portions of the Southeast. Damaging gusts
and hail still appear to be the main threats. Trends continue to be
monitored for the need of a WW issuance pending an increase in
thunderstorm coverage.

DISCUSSION...Discrete transient supercell structures continued to
progress along and north of an outflow boundary left behind by an
MCS from earlier this morning. Surface temperatures have warmed into
the upper 80s F south of the boundary, with MLCAPE increasing to
over 3000 J/kg. Amid this environment, there has been a recent
uptick in the intensity of the storms, with severe hail and damaging
gusts recently reported in Pontotoc County, MS. While hail and wind
gusts of similar caliber may occur over the next few hours, overall
deep-layer ascent remains modest, putting overall storm coverage and
the need of a WW issuance into question. Still, given the uptick in
storm intensity, convective trends are being monitored for the need
of a WW issuance should storms become more abundant.
