    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 370...

    Valid 150842Z - 151015Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 370
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Isolated hail and/or damaging wind gusts will remain
    possible for the next few hours. Anticipated coverage is expected to
    be isolated, precluding downstream watch issuance.

    DISCUSSION...A few supercells continue to persist across
    east-central NE and southwest IA, supported by warm-air advection
    and moderate buoyancy. Buoyancy has weakened in the immediate
    vicinity of these storms, as well as downstream into more of central
    IA. Expectation is for these storms to gradually diminish in
    coverage and intensity over the next few hours. Longevity and
    organized character of these storms suggests some severe threat will
    still exist for the next hour or two. However, the threat should
    become isolated enough to preclude additional watch issuance.

    Farther east, a transition to more of a linear structure has
    occurred, with the storms now propagating more eastward on the
    outflow. A gust of 50 kt was recently reported at MIW. Some isolated
    damaging wind gusts may occur with this line as it moves eastward
    over the next hour or so, but the downstream air mass is not overly
    supportive of storm maintenance and the outflow is moving ahead of
    the deeper convection. As such, the expectation is that the line
    will gradually weaken, precluding the need for a downstream watch at
    this time, but convective trends will be monitored closely.

    Mesoscale Discussion 1174

    0944 AM CDT Tue Jun 20 2023

    Areas affected...northwest through southeastern Louisiana and
    adjacent portions of southwestern Mississippi

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible=20

    Valid 201444Z - 201715Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Intensifying thunderstorms posing increasing risk for
    large hail and locally strong downbursts is possible through Noon-1
    PM CDT. Trends are being monitored for the possibility of a severe
    weather watch.

    DISCUSSION...Thunderstorms have recently initiated in a narrow
    corridor east- southeast of Shreveport, LA through the Gulfport, MS
    vicinity. This appears roughly aligned with a baroclinic zone
    around 850 mb, likely aided by forcing for ascent associated with
    weak frontogenesis and/or warm advection. A subtle mid-level short
    wave impulse has been apparent in recent water vapor loops, and is
    now digging southeastward across the Ark-La-Tex region.=20=20

    This initially elevated convective development probably is still
    being forced through a relatively warm layer centered around 700 mb.
    However, the continued southeastward progression of the mid-level
    wave may erode this capping layer. Furthermore, latest Rapid
    Refresh suggests that boundary-layer warming with insolation will
    result in increasingly negligible inhibition in a narrow corridor
    immediately south of ongoing convection through 16-18Z.=20=20

    As this occurs, potential exists for rapidly intensifying
    thunderstorm development, increasingly rooted in a boundary-layer
    becoming characterized by large CAPE in excess of 3000 J/kg.=20
    Although deep-layer shear beneath 30-40 kt northwesterly mid-level
    flow is modest, the environment still appears conducive to a risk
    for large hail and locally damaging downbursts with strongest storms
    into early afternoon.
