Areas affected...Portions of western/central Tennessee and vicinity

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

Valid 061921Z - 062145Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...40 percent

SUMMARY...Thunderstorms are expected to increase in coverage and
intensity across Tennessee this afternoon and evening along and
ahead of a cold front. Convective trends will continue to be
monitored for the possibility of a watch.

DISCUSSION...While synoptic forcing is limited across the area, some
vertical ascent is apparent in visible imagery across southeastern
Missouri, leading to multiple instances of convective initiation.=20
Deep-layer shear (around 50 knots per mesoanalysis) is sufficient to
support organized storm modes, including supercells. Long, straight
hodographs will also be supportive of storm splits, as evidenced by
the initial storm evolution in northwestern Tennessee. The limiting
factor to a more robust severe threat is the marginal instability
(currently around 500 J/kg of MLCAPE). Low-level clouds have been
persistent across much of western/central Tennessee slowing
destabilization across the area. Nevertheless, with some additional clearing/heating, storms are expected to increase in coverage and
intensity, especially over northern-middle Tennessee later this
afternoon and evening, posing an all-hazards severe weather risk.
Convective trends will be monitored for the possibility of a watch.
