Areas affected...Parts of southwestern Georgia...southern
Alabama...southeastern Mississippi

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

Valid 061908Z - 062115Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

SUMMARY...Some intensification of thunderstorm development is still
possible late this afternoon, particularly across parts of south
central through southeastern Alabama by 3-4 PM CST.  While this may
be accompanied by the risk of a few strong wind gusts and/or,
perhaps, a tornado, it still seems unlikely that a severe weather
watch will be needed.  Trends, however, will continue to be
monitored.

DISCUSSION...There has been some weak boundary-layer destabilization
ahead of the line of more vigorous thunderstorm development, which
continues to advance southward near/just ahead of the cold front.
Convection along the line appears to have been periodically enhanced
by subtle mid-level perturbations/speed maximum within the weak
branch of westerlies emanating from the subtropical Pacific.
However, the primary mid-level short wave impulse, within the
mid-latitude westerlies, is passing well to the northeast of the
region, and deep-layer mean wind fields are generally maintaining
modest strength or slowly weakening across the Gulf Coast vicinity.

Still, a lingering belt 30-40 kt west-southwesterly to westerly flow
in the 850-700 mb layer, coincident with the line of storms, may be
sufficient to maintain continuing risk for a few strong surface
gusts and/or an isolated tornado through the remainder of the
afternoon.  With further boundary-layer destabilization still
possible, there might be some intensification of ongoing storms,
particularly across parts of south central through southeastern
Alabama by 21-22Z.
