Mesoscale Discussion 0765
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0302 PM CDT Thu May 11 2023
Areas affected...Most of southern and central Mississippi...far
western Alabama...and far northern Louisiana.
Concerning...Tornado Watch 212...
Valid 112002Z - 112130Z
The severe weather threat for Tornado Watch 212 continues.
SUMMARY...A line of storms may continue to produce some damaging
wind gusts as it moves east late this afternoon.
DISCUSSION...A bowing line of storms continues to move east across
central Mississippi with intermittent reports of damaging winds in
its wake. However, lightning trends and radar appearance suggest
storm intensity may we waning. This is likely due to the MCS
outrunning the better low-level flow, which would be supported by
the LIX VWP. However, the environment downstream of these storms
continues to destabilize with near 70 dewpoints and mid 80s
temperatures advecting northward. Therefore, at least some damaging
wind threat may remain through the afternoon and into the early
evening.
