MD 0361 CONCERNING TORNADO WATCH 77…80… FOR EASTERN/NORTHEASTERN MISSISSIPPI AND FAR WESTERN ALABAMA.
Mesoscale Discussion 0361
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0559 PM CDT Wed Mar 30 2022
Areas affected...Eastern/northeastern Mississippi and far western
Alabama.
Concerning...Tornado Watch 77...80...
Valid 302259Z - 310030Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 77, 80 continues.
SUMMARY...The damaging wind and tornado threat continues from a line
of storms with embedded supercells.
DISCUSSION...The nature of the line has changed a bit over the past
1 to 2 hours with a less cohesive QLCS and a more embedded cellular
structure. Each of the tornado warnings and more sustained low-level
circulations are associated with taller cores and reflectivity
structures resembling embedded supercells. This change in nature of
the line and a favorable low-level shear environment (0-1 km SRH in
excess of 300 m2/s2 per KGWX VWP) may lead to an increase in tornado
productivity for the next hour or two. Dewpoints are lower across
Alabama, but some low-level moisture increase is expected, and the
environment remains favorable for tornadoes through the evening and
into the overnight hours.
