MD 1977 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL…WATCH UNLIKELY FOR NORTHERN MISSISSIPPI…NORTHERN ALABAMA…FAR SOUTHERN MIDDLE TENNESSEE
Mesoscale Discussion 1977
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
1056 AM CST Tue Nov 29 2022
Areas affected...Northern Mississippi...northern Alabama...far
southern Middle Tennessee
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely
Valid 291656Z - 291900Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent
SUMMARY...Marginally severe hail will be possible with elevated
storms early this afternoon. No watch is expected for this activity.
More intense activity is expected later this afternoon/evening.
DISCUSSION...As moisture rapidly returns north and east, a few
elevated storms have developed along the leading edge. Current storm
motions may keep this activity at least loosely tied to modest
elevated instability. Given the strongly sheared environment, some
potential for marginally severe hail will exist with the more
intense storms as they move northeast. It does not appear likely
that enough downstream destabilization will occur to support
surface-based updrafts. With that said, strong/damaging wind gust
potential is low.
No watch is anticipated for this activity. Stronger storms are
expected to impact some of these same areas later in the afternoon
and evening.
