    Mesoscale Discussion 2055

    0340 PM CDT Wed Sep 11 2024

    Areas affected...portions of southern Alabama into the western
    Florida Panhandle

    Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely=20

    Valid 112040Z - 120015Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

    SUMMARY...The tropical-cyclone tornado threat should gradually
    increase through the remainder of the afternoon. A Tornado Watch
    will eventually be needed.

    DISCUSSION...The center of Hurricane Francine continues to translate
    northeast as it approaches the LA coastline. Extending
    east-northeast of Francine's center is a zonal rainband, comprised
    of relatively discrete cells (some possibly transient
    supercellular). At the moment, these storms are percolating in
    intensity offshore, where a greater theta-e/buoyant airmass resides.
    However, this airmass is expected to gradually advect
    northward/inland with the north-northeastward progression of
    Francine through the afternoon and evening hours. HDC and MOB VADs
    show increasing hodograph sizes/curvature, indicating stronger
    low-level shear become established along the Gulf Coast. As such, a corresponding tornado threat should increase with the more favorable
    low-level warm-air/moisture advection. A Tornado Watch will
    eventually be needed.
