Mesoscale Discussion 1731
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0655 PM CDT Tue Aug 13 2019
Areas affected...eastern Arkansas...northern Mississippi...northern
Alabama...northern Georgia...and the southern half of Tennessee
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 579...
Valid 132355Z - 140100Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 579
continues.
SUMMARY...An isolated severe threat will gradually shift southward
across the discussion area through the early evening. The
probability of a new Severe Thunderstorm Watch issuance for portions
of the discussion area is 20%.
DISCUSSION...Scattered clusters of storms continue to persist across
the remaining valid portions of WW 579, with other marginally severe
convection in eastern Arkansas. More recently, scattered storms
have begun to develop across western Tennessee between these two
clusters of storms along a slowly southward-moving front across the
area. These storms are in a weakly sheared, yet strongly unstable
environment, which should continue to support isolated instances of
gusty winds and marginally severe hail. Storms have drifted
southward across the discussion area and should continue to do so
through slightly after dusk, when nocturnal boundary layer cooling
results in a decrease in overall updraft intensity. Furthermore,
western Tennessee convection may continue to expand and grow upscale
with time, posing a wind/hail risk into northern Mississippi over
the next couple hours. On the whole, these convective trends will
probably not necessitate a new WW issuance.
