    Areas affected...Northeast Arkansas...Southwest Tennessee...Northern Mississippi

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 131...

    Valid 160226Z - 160430Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 131 continues.

    SUMMARY...A severe threat is likely to continue late this evening as
    storms move into the far eastern part of WW 131. An isolated tornado
    threat, along with wind damage and large hail will be possible. Very
    large hail will be possible as well. A new weather watch will likely
    be needed to contain the severe weather threat.

    DISCUSSION...The latest high-resolution radar imagery from Memphis
    shows scattered strong to severe thunderstorms across much of
    northeastern Arkansas, with a couple intense storms ongoing. A
    well-developed supercell with a history of very large hail is
    approaching the Mississippi River in far northeast Arkansas. This
    storm is in a strongly sheared environment. The latest WSR-88D VWP
    from Memphis has 0-6 km shear near 60 knots with 0-3 km storm
    relative helicity around 600 m2/s2. In addition, the RAP has 700-500
    mb lapse rates near 8.0 C/km. This will support supercells with
    large hail. Hail of greater than 2 inches in diameter, along with a
    tornado and wind-damage threat will also be possible with the most
    intense of the storms. As the storms approach the southeastern edge
    of WW 131 over the next hour or so, a new WW will likely be
    required.

    0240 PM CDT Mon Apr 10 2023

    Areas affected...Parts of western into north central Oklahoma and
    adjacent portions of southern Kansas

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

    Valid 101940Z - 102215Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...A few strong storms posing at least some risk for severe
    weather appear possible by 5-7 PM CDT. It is not clear that a
    severe weather watch is needed, but trends will continue to be
    monitored for this possibility.

    DISCUSSION...Low-level forcing for ascent is rather weak, but a
    lingering confluence zone near the interface of a corridor of
    stronger surface heating and modest boundary-layer moisture is
    becoming the focus for destabilization across parts of northwestern
    Oklahoma through eastern Kansas. While this is likely to remain
    characterized by mixed-layer CAPE less than 1000 J/kg, low-level
    lapse rates are becoming steep beneath seasonably cool mid-level air
    around -18C.

    Scattered convection is beginning to from and deepen in response to
    the continuing surface heating, and model output generally indicates
    that this will lead to the development of a few thunderstorms by
    23-00Z. It appears that stronger storms may gradually focus where
    deep-layer shear and mid-level forcing for ascent become maximized,
    near the left exit region of a digging northerly mid-level jet
    streak (around 40 kt at 500 mb), roughly near and south-southwest of
    the Enid vicinity. Given the environment, some of these storms may
    pose a risk for (mostly) sub-severe to marginally severe hail and
    wind gusts.

    Areas affected...Portions of southeastern NC and northeastern SC

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 131...

    Valid 202300Z - 210030Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 131
    continues.

    SUMMARY...The severe risk will continue across Severe Thunderstorm
    Watch 131 for the next few hours. Primary concerns are isolated
    large hail and locally damaging gusts.

    DISCUSSION...Two main corridors of severe storms persist across
    portions of southeastern NC and northeastern SC this evening. Closer
    to the southeastern NC coast, recent storm mergers have yielded a
    consolidated supercell which is generally anchored to an
    outflow-modified sea breeze boundary. This storm will likely
    continue drifting slowly south-southeastward to the coast, with a
    risk of locally damaging gusts (50-65 mph) and isolated large hail
    (up to 1.5 inches in diameter). Slightly farther northwest (over the northeastern SC/southeastern NC border), splitting storms with
    occasional supercell structure are ongoing amid a long/straight
    hodograph environment and moderate surface-based instability. These
    storms will continue to pose a risk of isolated large hail as well,
    in addition to severe gusts given a steep low-level lapse rate plume
    extending toward the inflow of this activity. The severe threat will
    generally persist until storms move off the coast in the next 3-4
    hours.
