Areas affected...north-central Arkansas into central Kentucky
Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 259...
Valid 161032Z - 161130Z
The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 259
continues.
SUMMARY...Thunderstorms continue this morning across the region. The
overall environment will support large hail and isolated severe wind
with the strongest thunderstorms. Severe Thunderstorm Watch 259
continues.
DISCUSSION...Several areas of thunderstorms developed this morning
across Severe Thunderstorm Watch 259, and much of this activity
continues. These thunderstorms are occurring along a slow moving
cold front draped across Arkansas into and through Kentucky, aided
by warm-air advection associated with the right entrance region of a
midlevel jet/jet streak. Given most-unstable CAPE between 2000-4000
J/kg and effective bulk shear still above 60 knots, a large hail and
damaging wind threat will persist through the morning. Thus, the
severe threat will continue across Watch 259.
After the last of the existing thunderstorms (currently over
west-central Arkansas) move east out of the watch area, additional thunderstorms are expected later today. All severe hazards will be
possible with these additional thunderstorms.
