Areas affected...southwest into central Alabama
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20
Valid 241742Z - 241945Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent
SUMMARY...A couple of damaging gusts may accompany an organizing
thunderstorm cluster across southwest Alabama as it progresses
northward through mid afternoon. A WW issuance is not expected given
the isolated nature of the severe threat.
DISCUSSION...MRMS mosaic radar and NLDN lightning data suggest an
upward tick in convective intensity/coverage is underway with a
thunderstorm cluster in southwest AL, which continues to progress
northeast within a very moist, unstable airmass. Surface
temperatures over 80F amid 70F surface dewpoints are contributing to
1500-2000 J/kg MLCAPE per 17Z mesoanalysis. While mid-level lapse
rates and deep-layer shear are currently poor across southwest AL,
slightly mid/upper flow across central AL supports 30+ kts of
effective bulk shear. Should this storm cluster persist through mid
afternoon, some potential exists for modest linear organization and
an associated strong/damaging gust threat materializing, as also
suggested by the last few runs of the HRRR. Still, severe gusts are
expected to remain more isolated so a WW issuance is not currently
expected.
