Areas affected...Far Southern Mississippi...Southern
Alabama...Western Florida Panhandle
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 234...
Valid 131151Z - 131345Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 234
continues.
SUMMARY...Wind damage, hail and an isolated tornado threat will be
possible this morning from far southern Mississippi into southern
Alabama and the western Florida Panhandle.
DISCUSSION...The latest hi-resolution radar imagery from Mobile, AL
shows a cluster of thunderstorms over southern Mississippi and
southern Alabama, with a couple embedded strong storms. This
convection is located along a northwest-to-southeast gradient of
instability, and appears to be elevated in nature. However, forecast
soundings across the western Florida Panhandle have MUCAPE around
1000 J/kg, with effective shear near 60 knots and 0-3 storm-relative
helicity just above 200 m2/s2. This should support a wind-damage
threat, and perhaps a potential for a brief tornado, if the cells
can become more surface-based. The threat would be the greatest with
cells that can move more southeastward into the stronger instability
near the coast.
