Areas affected...Middle Tennessee and Southern Kentucky

Concerning...Tornado Watch 9...

Valid 160313Z - 160415Z

The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 9 continues.

SUMMARY...Severe threat continues within WW009.

DISCUSSION...A line of thunderstorms continues to track east
northeast across portions of Middle Tennessee and southern Kentucky.
Storms embedded within the line have shown transient rotation, with
instances of hail up to golf ball and damaging wind. With eastward advancements, storms have begun outpacing the more unstable air
mass. Dew points into the 60s remain as far north as far southern
Kentucky. However, 00z sounding from BNA shows low level CIN and
poor distribution of MLCAPE within the profile. Across east
Tennessee, dew points in the mid to upper 50s are more common with
temperatures cooling rapidly with eastward extent.

Shear profiles remain very strong, with deep layer shear around
45-50 kts and 0-3 km SRH around 600 m2/s2. Despite the decreasingly
favorable thermal environment, deep layer shear will likely favor
continued organization and risk for damaging wind, given recent
trends in a more elongated line with bowing segments. Embedded
MESOVORTEX within the line may still pose a risk for tornadoes.
