    Mesoscale Discussion 0282

    Areas affected...Southern Alabama...Florida Panhandle...Southwestern
    Georgia

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 221858Z - 222130Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...A marginal tornado/wind damage threat is expected across
    parts of southern Alabama, the Florida Panhandle and far
    southwestern Georgia this afternoon. The threats are not currently
    expected to be great enough to warrant watch issuance.

    DISCUSSION...Latest surface analysis shows a 1010 mb low across
    southern Mississippi with backed southeast flow across much of
    southern Alabama, southwestern Georgia and the Florida Panhandle.
    Surface dewpoints in these areas are in the mid to upper 60s F and
    the RAP is estimating SBCAPE values in the 750 to 1500 J/kg range.
    In addition, the Fort Rucker, Alabama WSR-88D VWP shows a curved
    hodograph with 0-3 km storm relative helicity around 300 m2/s2. This
    suggests that the stronger discrete cells will rotate and could have
    a marginal tornado and/or wind damage threat. In spite of this, a
    large area of cloudiness and rainfall is present from the Florida
    Panhandle northward across much of Alabama. This should limit any
    further destabilization and should keep any severe threat marginal
    this afternoon. Nevertheless, we will continue to closely monitor
    the situation.

    Mesoscale Discussion 0282
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0536 PM CDT Sun Apr 07 2019

    Areas affected...Portions of far east Mississippi...northern
    Alabama...far northwest Georgia...far southeast Tennessee

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely

    Valid 072236Z - 080030Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...Discrete storms may continue for a few more hours, posing
    mainly a severe hail risk, though a few damaging wind gusts can not
    be ruled out. A WW issuance is not anticipated at this time.

    DISCUSSION...Relatively discrete convection, occasionally exhibiting
    brief, transient supercell structures, continue to initiate/sustain
    themselves along a quasi-stationary baroclinic zone extending from
    central Mississippi, to far southeast Tennessee. Instability is
    gradually waning across the warm sector, with MLCAPE decreasing to
    1000-1500 J/kg in the last few hours. Nonetheless, relatively steep
    low-level lapse rates and 0-3km CAPE exceeding 100 J/kg have
    supported vigorous updraft development despite a weak shear
    environment being in place, with 1.5 inch diameter hail reported in
    Fayette County, AL an hour ago.

    Before the onset of nocturnal stabilization, a few more instances of
    severe hail are possible, with a severe gust or two possible with
    the stronger water-loaded downdrafts. Given the sparse nature of the
    severe hail/wind threat, no WW issuances are expected at this time.
