    Mesoscale Discussion 0309

    Areas affected...Northern Mississippi and northwest Alabama

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely=20

    Valid 221657Z - 221900Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

    SUMMARY...Some increase in potential for damaging winds and QLCS
    tornadoes is expected through the afternoon. A watch will likely be
    considered in the next hour.

    DISCUSSION...Filtered sunshine through upper-level clouds has warmed temperatures into the upper 60s F across northern
    Mississippi/Alabama. More importantly, dewpoints which began the day
    in the 40s F have now risen into the low 50s F as the warm front has
    continued to the north. Given the current northeastward speed of the
    ongoing convection in western Mississippi, continued destabilization
    should support on the order of 500-1000 J/kg MLCAPE by mid/late
    afternoon. Greater uncertainty in sufficient destabilization exists
    in north-central into northwest Mississippi. A favorably timed
    increase in the 850-700 mb winds will bring an attendant threat for
    damaging wind gusts and QLCS-embedded circulations/tornadoes.

    Areas affected...north central Missouri into central Illinois

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

    Valid 222331Z - 230130Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...Scattered strong thunderstorms may begin to develop by
    8-10 PM CDT, with a few posing a risk for large hail before storms
    become more widespread while spreading east-northeast of the
    Mississippi River later this evening.

    DISCUSSION...Deepening convection is evident within a narrow
    corridor just to the cool side of a quasi-stationary to slowly
    southward advancing near-surface frontal zone (currently still to
    the north of the Sedalia and Columbia vicinities east-northeastward
    toward Springfield, IL). Low-level moisture within this zone may be contributing to most unstable CAPE up to around 1500 J/kg, beneath
    modestly steep mid-level lapse rates. However, thermodynamic
    profiles include a relatively warm/capping layer between 850-700 mb,
    beneath building large-scale mid/upper ridging east of the southern
    Rockies into the Appalachians.

    There does appear to be a weak short wave perturbation progressing
    into the crest of this mid-level ridging, across and east-northeast
    of the lower Missouri Valley vicinity. And model output has been
    suggestive that associated forcing for ascent and cooling through
    the capping inversion may allow the initiation of scattered
    thunderstorms as early as 01-03Z. This may be aided by radiational
    cloud top cooling after dark.

    As storms initiate, and before convection becomes increasingly
    widespread, strong vertical shear within the convective layer may
    contribute to a couple of supercell structures posing a risk to
    produce large hail. Despite the proximity to the frontal zone,
    given the rather rapid/sharp cooling to the north of the frontal
    zone, the potential for strong surface gusts appears limited, even
    as west-southwesterly 850 mb flow strengthens in excess of 40 kt by
    late evening.

    Areas affected...portions of the central Florida Peninsula

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

    Valid 271753Z - 271900Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent

    SUMMARY...A line of thunderstorms may produce damaging winds and
    hail over the next hour.

    DISCUSSION...A broken line of thunderstorms off the coast of the
    Florida peninsula has shown an increase intensity as it moves
    inland. Surface objective analysis would suggest that MLCIN is still
    in place inland, though deep layer shear remains strong (45-50 kts).
    More robust portions of this line may produce localized large hail
    and damaging winds before it begins to weaken further inland.
    Overall this threat should remain brief and as such a watch is not
    likely to be needed.
