Areas affected...parts of central and eastern Arkansas...the
Missouri Bootheel...a small part of northwestern Mississippi...and
western and Middle Tennessee
Concerning...Tornado Watch 213...
Valid 090451Z - 090645Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 213 continues.
SUMMARY...Severe storms continue spreading eastward across Arkansas,
the Missouri Bootheel, and western Kentucky, and will affect
portions of Tennessee over the next couple of hours. Along with
risk for locally damaging wind gusts and hail, a couple of tornadoes
remain possible.
DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows a band of strong/locally severe
storms extending from central Arkansas east-northeastward into
western Kentucky, moving steadily eastward with time. The storms
are moving through a favorably unstable airmass, where mixed-layer
CAPE values remain in the 2500 to 3500 J/kg range. This -- combined
with the presence of a veering/southwesterly low-level jet, will
likely sustain ongoing convection well into the overnight hours,
accompanied locally by an all-hazards severe risk.
