AREAS AFFECTED...NERN AR / NRN MS / WRN TN / SERN MO / WRN KY

CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH LIKELY

VALID 110054Z - 110230Z

THE THREAT FOR SEVERE STORMS /INCLUDING SUPERCELLS/ CAPABLE OF HAIL
AND ISOLATED TORNADOES IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP E/NE OF TORNADO WATCH
22 BY AS EARLY AS 02Z. A NEW WW WILL LIKELY BE REQUIRED.

STRONG/SEVERE STORMS ARE GRADUALLY INCREASING IN COVERAGE OVER CNTRL
AR WITH THE MOST INTENSE STORM /A SUPERCELL/ LOCATED OVER SALINE
COUNTY AR AS OF 0040Z. 00Z LIT SOUNDING SHOWED THE PRESENCE OF
STEEP TROPOSPHERIC LAPSE RATES AND COLD MIDLEVEL TEMPERATURES WHICH
WERE CONTRIBUTING TO MLCAPE OF AROUND 1500 J/KG DESPITE DEWPOINTS
ONLY IN THE UPPER 50S. SURFACE OBSERVATIONS FARTHER E OVER THE MS
DELTA REGION INDICATE SLIGHTLY GREATER MOISTURE CONTENT WHICH SHOULD
CONTINUE TO BE ADVECTED NWD THROUGH ERN AR/WRN TN...ALLOWING
ONGOING...SURFACE-BASED SUPERCELLS TO PERSIST AFTER DARK.

STRENGTHENING LOW-LEVEL WAA REGIME ATTENDANT TO INTENSIFYING LLJ MAY
CONTRIBUTE TO ADDITIONAL STORM FORMATION E OF ONGOING ACTIVITY PRIOR
TO 02-03Z. GIVEN THE GRADUAL INCREASE IN BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE
AND RESULTANT LOWERING OF LCL HEIGHTS IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE
STRENGTHENING LOW-LEVEL SHEAR...ENVIRONMENT WILL BECOME INCREASINGLY
SUPPORTIVE OF SUPERCELLS CAPABLE OF ISOLATED TORNADOES IN ADDITION
TO SEVERE HAIL.

VALID 110113Z - 110215Z

THE SEVERE WEATHER THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 23

THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AHEAD OF A STRONG UPPER
LOW...CURRENTLY LOCATED NEAR THE N CNTRL OK/ S CNTRL KS BORDER.
DIURNAL COOLING IN ADDITION TO A NOW RAIN COOLED AIR MASS HAVE
LIMITED STORMS FROM BECOMING SURFACE BASED. HOWEVER...STEEP MID
LEVEL LAPSE RATES NEAR 7.5 C/KM REFLECTED ON 00Z SPRINGFIELD
SOUNDING IN COMBINATION WITH FAVORABLE EFFECTIVE SHEAR WILL SUPPORT
OCCASIONALLY ROTATING STORMS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING SEVERE HAIL IN
STRONGER CORES. HOWEVER...CURRENT VAD WIND PROFILE DATA IN THE WW
AREA SHOWS NEARLY UNIDIRECTIONAL WIND FIELDS...AND RADAR IMAGERY
INDICATES THESE WINDS HAVE LED TO STORM INTERFERENCE. THIS MAY BE A
LIMITING FACTOR TO STRONGER STORM DEVELOPMENT.
