    Areas affected...Parts of AL into middle TN

    Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely=20

    Valid 131721Z - 131945Z

    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...The threat for locally damaging wind and possibly a
    tornado may increase into this afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...A remnant surface low is located over northern AR early
    this afternoon. An occluded front extends east-northeast of the low
    into western TN, then extends southeast as a stationary or warm
    front across parts of northern/central AL into western GA. Farther
    south, a cold front is moving across MS, with a surface trough/wind
    shift noted to the east from western AL into southern MS.=20

    In the vicinity of these boundaries, convection is gradually
    increasing from western AL into southern middle TN, and a few cells
    across northwest AL have exhibited some weak rotation. While
    low-level flow/shear has gradually decreased as the remnant of
    Tropical Cyclone Francine has weakened, effective SRH of around 100
    m2/s2 and modestly favorable deep-layer shear will continue to favor occasionally organized convection into this afternoon. MLCAPE will
    increase to near or above 1000 J/kg, with an increase in convective
    coverage expected with time within a weakly capped environment.

    A few marginal supercells could evolve with time, and a tornado
    cannot be ruled out, especially in a zone between the surface
    trough/wind shift approaching from the west and the effective warm
    front to the east, where low-level flow will remain locally backed
    as gradual heating/destabilization continues. Otherwise, locally
    damaging winds will be possible, especially if any localized
    clustering of convection can develop with time.
