Areas affected...Portions of southern AL...the western FL
Panhandle...and far southwestern GA
Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20
Valid 181950Z - 182215Z
Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent
SUMMARY...An isolated threat for strong/damaging winds and perhaps a
brief tornado may continue through the rest of the afternoon. Watch
issuance is unlikely.
DISCUSSION...Convection has gradually increased in coverage this
afternoon in a modest low-level warm advection regime across parts
of the central Gulf Coast states. Filtered diurnal heating and a
moist low-level airmass are contributing to around 1000-1500 J/kg of
MLCAPE, although mid-level lapse rates remain relatively poor. The
VWP from KMOB shows low-level flow has veered to southwesterly, with
a nearly unidirectional wind profile through mid levels. Still,
there is slightly better veering/strengthening of the boundary-layer
winds with height per recent VWPs from KEVX/KEOX. Around 100 m2/s2
of 0-1 km SRH and 30-35 kt of effective bulk shear are supporting
modest storm organization. A low-topped storm in Coffee County AL
has recently displayed some signs of low-level rotation. Additional
convection across southern AL and the western FL Panhandle appears
less organized at the moment. But, there may be some potential for
isolated strong to damaging winds with the more robust updrafts as
storms spread east-northeastward through the rest of the afternoon.
A brief tornado may also occur given the marginally favorable
low-level shear. However, the already modest low-level winds are
expected to further weaken/veer over the next few hours. This
suggests that the overall severe threat will likely remain
isolated/marginal, and watch issuance is not expected at this time.
