    Areas affected...Southeast Louisiana...southeast Mississippi...and
    portions of southwest Alabama.

    Concerning...Tornado Watch 588...

    Valid 142053Z - 142230Z

    The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 588 continues.

    SUMMARY...Numerous strong supercells continue this afternoon with a
    threat for strong tornadoes.

    DISCUSSION...Numerous supercells developed this afternoon with only
    a few confirmed tornadoes. However, these storms have congealed into
    a line of 5-6 dominant supercells extending from Clarke County,
    Mississippi to southwest of New Orleans. This storm evolution is
    seemingly more favorable for low-level updraft circulations as TDSs
    have recently been observed in Clarke County, Mississippi and south
    of Lake Pontchartrain from similar strength rotational velocity as
    the numerous supercells which lacked a clear TDS in the prior 1 to 2
    hours. Therefore, as heating reaches its diurnal maximum, low-level
    flow continues to strengthen in association with the deepening
    meso-low, and the low-level jet strengthens to 60+ knots per LIX
    VWP, storms may be entering the period of greatest tornado
    potential.=20

    The most favorable environment is currently near New Orleans where
    STP values of 4 to 5 exist with a couple supercells approaching from
    the Southwest. Therefore, portions of southeast Louisiana, including
    the New Orleans metro area may have the greatest chance for strong
    tornadoes over the next 1 to 2 hours.

    Areas affected...Lower Michigan

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

    Valid 240428Z - 240630Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

    SUMMARY...Convection is expected to increase across central and
    southeast lower Michigan over the next several hours. Some risk for
    hail and gusty winds may necessitate the need for a severe
    thunderstorm watch.

    DISCUSSION...Remnants of a weak short-wave trough have topped the
    central US ridge and are now digging southeast across northwest
    ON/northern Lake Superior. This feature appears to be aiding a
    westerly LLJ across southern WI into southern lower MI where 850mb
    flow is now on the order of 25-35kt. While the short wave will prove
    negligible in lowering heights across this region, sustained
    low-level warm advection is expected to aid strong, to potentially
    severe thunderstorms along the eastern edge of a strong cap. Plume
    of steep mid-level lapse rates continue to overspread this region
    and latest satellite imagery depicts deepening updrafts over
    southern Clare/northern Isabella County region. Scattered
    thunderstorms should develop over the next 1-2 hours and likely grow
    upscale as they spread southeast into the northwestern flank of the
    OH Valley MCS. This activity may produce some hail and wind. Will
    monitor for a potential severe thunderstorm watch but the primary
    risk may continue to be heavy rain as convection grows upscale.
