    Areas affected...central and northeastern Arkansas into western
    Tennessee

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 550...

    Valid 060901Z - 061000Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 550
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Local risk for gusty/damaging winds will continue over the
    next 1 to 2 hours. However, a new WW -- to extend beyond the
    scheduled 10Z expiration of WW 550 -- appears unnecessary given expected/limited risk.

    DISCUSSION...Latest radar loop shows a band of storms -- exhibiting
    anafrontal characteristics -- moving across central and northeastern
    Arkansas at this time, representing the tail end of the longer,
    frontal band of storms that extends east-northeastward to
    southwestern Ohio. Meanwhile, a second, more loosely organized
    pre-frontal convective band continues to evolve near and east of the Mississippi River into western Tennessee.

    Ahead of the convection, a boundary layer featuring dewpoints in the
    upper 50s to low 60s is contributing to modest mixed-layer CAPE
    (around 500 J/kg per the latest RUC objective analyses). However, a
    slightly stable boundary layer is also hinted at, owing to the
    diurnal cooling. This, combined with front-parallel flow aloft,
    continues to limit overall risk for damaging winds.

    While some uptick in convective intensity may occur as storms
    approach/cross the Tennessee Valley, where the axis of instability
    resides, substantial increase in what has proven to be minimal
    severe potential is not expected. Therefore, while we will continue
    to monitor convective and environmental evolution, new WW issuance
    is not currently anticipated.
