    Areas affected...parts of western Arkansas...southeastern Oklahoma
    and northeast Texas.

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 108...

    Valid 112346Z - 120115Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 108
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The severe risk continues across WW108. Supercells capable
    of all hazards will continue east-northeast into WW107.

    DISCUSSION...Regional radar and surface analysis showed several
    supercells ongoing across southeastern Oklahoma in the vicinity of a
    subtle warm front lifting through the ArkLaTex. Ahead of these
    storms the airmass remain warm, moist, and unstable with low to mid
    60s F dewpoints and 2000-3000 J/kg of MLCAPE. Regional VWPs show
    40-50 kt of effective shear which will continue to support updraft organization/rotation as these storms move east-northeastward. In
    addition to the favorable mid-level shear, VWPs show increasingly
    large low-level hodographs with eastward extent. Given the favorable
    mode and the expected increase in 0-1km ESRH with the developing
    nocturnal low-level jet, low-level mesocyclone strengthen and the
    subsequent tornado threat may increase as storms move out of WW108
    into WW107. Otherwise, these supercells remain capable of producing
    large to very large hail and damaging wind gusts.

    Latest radar and visible imagery also show several attempts at
    discrete warm sector Ci across far southeastern OK and western AR.
    Likely driven by subtle confluence near the aforementioned lifting
    warm front, any supercells able to become established within the
    free warm sector would likely pose a risk for tornadoes this evening
    given STP values of 3-4 from the latest SPC mesoanalysis.

    Areas affected...Northeast MS...Central/Southern AL

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 032221Z - 040015Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Isolated severe thunderstorms capable of large hail and
    damaging gusts are possible for the next few hours.

    DISCUSSION...Recent surface analysis places a warm front from
    northern MS southeastward into southeast AL and and the western FL
    Panhandle. Air mass in the vicinity of this boundary is
    characterized by temperatures in the upper 70s/low 80s, dewpoints in
    the mid/upper 60s, and moderate buoyancy. Latest mesoanalysis
    estimated MLCAPE around 1000-1500 J/kg. Large-scale forcing is weak,
    but convergence along and in the vicinity of this boundary has
    initiated thunderstorms over central AL. Additional storm
    development is possible farther north across northeast MS, but the
    highest coverage of storms is expected to remain over central AL.

    Given the moderate buoyancy and effective bulk shear on the order of
    50 kt, storms may be able to mature into a supercell or two.
    Low-level flow is weak, mitigating the tornado threat, but the
    presence of the warm front and potential for rotating updrafts still
    suggests a non-zero risk. Primary risk with these storms is isolated
    large hail, with isolated damaging gusts possible as well. Overall
    storm coverage is expected to remain isolated to widely scattered,
    with storm intensity expected to diminish after sunset.

    Areas affected...eastern Nebraska amd adjacent portions of the
    Missouri Valley

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 160207Z - 160430Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...An increase in generally weak thunderstorm activity is
    ongoing. While there is some uncertainty, the risk for severe
    weather still appears limited until late tonight.

    DISCUSSION...Downstream of a significant mid-level trough emerging
    from the Southwest, a developing area of mid-level warm advection is
    becoming focused across the northeastern Kansas/eastern Nebraska
    vicinity of the middle Missouri Valley. Based on radar, and the
    16/00Z sounding from Topeka, associated lift and moistening are
    contributing to destabilization supportive of an ongoing increase in
    convective development, which is rooted above the inversion
    associated with a prominent elevated mixed-layer.

    Below the capping inversion, boundary-layer moistening, within a
    corridor to the west of the Missouri River, has contributed to
    mixed-layer CAPE in excess of 2000 J/kg. And, in the presence of=20
    sizable clockwise-curved low-level hodographs and strong deep-layer
    shear, the environment has become conditionally favorable for
    boundary-layer based supercells. However, until the leading edge of
    mid-level cooling approaching from the southwest begins to
    overspread the region later tonight, the boundary-layer instability
    and stronger convective potential may remain unrealized.
