Areas affected...Arklatex...South/Central Arkansas...Northern
Mississippi...and western Tennessee
Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely=20
Valid 012022Z - 012215Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent
SUMMARY...Severe storms are expected to develop and increase in
coverage by the afternoon/evening. More discrete cells may pose risk
of large hail and a few tornadoes. Tornado Watch likely needed by
21-22z.
DISCUSSION...Current surface objective analysis and data from 18z
soundings at SHV and LZK show some progress made in eroding CIN
across the corridor from Louisiana, Arkansas, and Mississippi.
However, daytime heating is well underway with surface obs showing
temperatures across southern Louisiana and Mississippi approaching
the upper 70s to lower 80s. Moisture is in place with mid to upper
60s dew points into central Arkansas and Tennessee. Trends within
CAM guidance have been for development of more discrete cells
initially across the Arklatex region by 21-23z, where the cap has
been weakening within the last couple of hours. Once storms develop,
initial discrete cells will be capable of large hail, given deep
layer shear profiles of 60-65 kts. Any cells that can become surface
based near the AR/LA border will support some risk for tornadoes
given adequate low level shear. As the low level jet gradually
strengthens late afternoon/evening, elongating shear profiles and
increasing 0-1 km shear should support a greater risk for tornadoes.
A Tornado Watch is likely by 21-22z.
